Guest opinion: Why Montanans should support 28th amendment

American democracy is in crisis, and modest measures now are inadequate to the task. We need a 28th Amendment to the Constitution to replace government of the money with government of the people, and Montana can take the lead.

Our American ideal of one person, one vote should mean that citizens have an equal ability to participate in the process to elect our public officers, and that our votes are not weighted or devalued by those who vote with dollars. But today, money decides and almost all that money comes from a tiny elite.
