Standing room only crowd shows up for Democracy Day in Chagrin Falls
On Monday, March 10, the Chagrin Falls Village Council chambers were packed as an incredible outpouring of community support turned Move to Amend Day into a powerful statement for real democracy. The last biennial event drew only a handful of attendees, but this year, at least 70 citizens filled the room—so many that some sat on the floor in front of the council dais.
The energy in the room was undeniable. One by one, at least a dozen community members spoke passionately about the corrupting influence of money in politics. Their voices echoed a shared frustration with billionaires and corporations buying elections, shaping policies, and drowning out the will of everyday Americans.
This overwhelming turnout sent a clear message: the people of Chagrin Falls are ready to fight for a government that represents them, not corporate interests. Their presence and advocacy helped strengthen the Move to Amend movement, which seeks to end corporate personhood and push for a constitutional amendment to get big money out of politics.
This was more than just a meeting—it was a rallying cry for change. And thanks to this incredible show of solidarity, the movement in Chagrin Falls is stronger than ever.
