9:29Now PlayingWhen the Supreme Court issued their ruling earlier this year in the Citizens' United case, they opened the floodgates for corporate money to finally have complete control over our election process. Luckily, there are still a few members of congress willing to fight for us, and now legislation has been introduced that would force corporations to disclose what they pay for. For example, if Exxon wants to run a smear campaign against a Democratic Senator, that ad must clearly state that Exxon paid it for. That's just one of the many items featured in legislation proposed by Congressman Chris Van Hollen, and he recently spoke to Mike Papantonio about how he's working to undo the damage caused by our Supreme Court.
