This joint resolution from the Montana legislature urges Congress to clarify that the rights protected under the United States Constitution are exclusive to human beings and do not extend to corporations or other artificial entities. It emphasizes the need for governments to regulate campaign contributions and expenditures to safeguard the democratic process from corruption and undue influence. The resolution references historical context, including the Corrupt Practices Act of 1912, which aimed to limit corporate influence in politics, and highlights the detrimental effects of Supreme Court decisions, particularly the Citizens United case, which allowed for unlimited spending by corporations and political action committees in elections.

The resolution calls for a constitutional amendment that would affirm that only human beings possess rights under the Constitution, prohibit entities from having separate rights, and empower governments to regulate campaign financing to ensure equitable access to the political process. It also stipulates that all contributions and expenditures must be publicly disclosed and asserts that such regulations should not be interpreted as violations of constitutional rights. The resolution concludes by directing the Secretary of State to send copies of this resolution to Montana's congressional delegation.
