The 2025 Assembly Joint Resolution 42 proposes an advisory referendum for the November 2026 ballot, asking Wisconsin voters whether Congress should propose an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to overturn the Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United v. F.E.C. This landmark ruling established that corporations have the same rights as individuals regarding political speech, allowing for unlimited corporate spending in political campaigns. The resolution aims to address concerns about the influence of money in politics and seeks to ensure that all Americans have an equal voice in the democratic process.

The proposed amendment would clarify that only human beings possess constitutional rights, excluding corporations, unions, and other artificial entities, and would assert that money does not equate to speech. By placing this question before the voters, the resolution seeks to gauge public support for limiting the financial influence of corporations in elections and promoting a more equitable political landscape.
