CIVIL RIGHTS
We support a dynamic interpretation of the federal Bill of Rights that protects the interests of “we the people” over corporations. We favor universal suffrage, practices that encourage everyone to vote, and rules that protect and extend the principle of one person, one vote. This means we advocate “hacker-free” voting systems, we favor ending the “winner-take-all” rule of the Electoral College, we demand rigorous application of fair standard for revision of political boundaries, and we support restoration of voting rights for convicted felons who have served their time. We support strong voter initiative and referendum policies, and we demand a thorough revision of U.S. immigration policy to reflect universally recognized values embedded in well-considered statements of international human rights.
