Business Leaders Call for Passage of the Fair Elections Now Act!We ran a coordinated ad in Roll Call, the newspaper for Capitol Hill, with business leaders from around the country asking Congress to pass the Fair Elections Now Act! Our lawmakers should focus on doing the job we elected them to do--working to solve our nation's problems--and the Fair Elections Now Act will do just that.
We can do more but we need your help! Sign The Fair Elections Now Act Petition!I support the Fair Elections Now Act (S.752, H.R.1826), the bipartisan bill introduced in both chambers of Congress, that would allow congressional candidates to run for office using small donations and limited public financing, and not take any large contributions. Elections should empower voters and volunteers instead of campaign donors and wealthy special interests. Click here to sign the Fair Elections Now Petition |
