FUNDING CANDIDATES WHO WILL WORK FOR THE PEOPLE
We deserve to have our voices heard in government. We deserve inclusive access to free and fair elections and elected officials who work for the common good. The For the People Act of 2021 (HR1/S1) would enact federal legislation to protect our right to be heard in elections and to expect elected officials and their appointees to govern for all of us.

FREE THE FEC
We have a way to make free and fair elections much more fair. For years, the Federal Election Commission has been dysfunctional, allowing obvious violations of the campaign finance laws to go unchecked. The For the People Act will again enable the FEC to conduct investigations and audits, hold hearings, issue regulations, and force disclosure.

THE FOR THE PEOPLE ACT WILL HELP PROTECT OUR ELECTIONS FROM THE INFLUENCE OF BIG MONEY
Big money in elections is corrupting and anti-democratic. The For The People Act (HR1/S1) has provisions to strengthen our election finance laws. It protects our democracy from being smothered by big money donors who have no accountability or transparency. HR1/S1 has broad support among average Americans, and our representatives in Congress will listen to us when we call and ask them to work for its passage.

HR1/S1 Would Reform Campaign Financing
The Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision increased to obscene levels the amount of money in politics. But Congress can limit the decision’s impact. Urge our Members of Congress pass the For The People Act.

WE DESERVE A CAMPAIGN SYSTEM THAT IS ABOUT VOTERS – NOT MONEY
Campaign finance abuse, lack of transparency/oversight into campaign finance, has created a corrupt system where domestic and foreign money holds the power over elected officials – at the expense of the voter. The For the People Act takes steps to reform, increase transparency, and decrease corruption in campaign finance – giving back power to the people and the voters.
