Language agreed to for the ballot:
RESOLVED, the People of the City
of Portland, Oregon call for amending the United States
Constitution to establish that:
1. Only human beings, not
corporations, are entitled to constitutional rights, and
2. Money is not speech, and
therefore regulating political contributions and spending is not
equivalent to limiting political speech.
