Missoula Moves to Amend: "Money isn’t speech and corporations aren’t people"

Sipping tea at a Missoula cafe with a group of community activists, Linda Gillison confessed that her quest to rid politics of dark money doesn’t likely top the list of political wishes held by most Montana voters.

Still, she and others behind Missoula Moves to Amend believe it may rank high enough to build a movement and carry it forward to the national level.
