How has the 'Citizens United' decision affected our politics?

On the next Your Call we'll talk about the Citizens United case. January 21 is the one year anniversary of the Supreme Court decision that allowed unfettered election campaign contributions by corporations and unions. Did it make an impact on last year's political campaigns? And how will it continue to alter the future of American politics? Join us live at 10 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. Does the new law give corporations too much power in politics? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guests:
Peter Stone, journalist for the Center for Public Integrity

John Bonifaz, co-founder and director of Free Speech for People

Wendy Kaminer, a lawyer, writer, social critic
