The cost of running for Congress continues to rise with no end in sight. Well qualified candidates are deciding not to run for office because they lack connections to wealth or political insiders. Those that do run are forced to spend more and more time raising money and less time talking with voters about their concerns. The current system is unsustainable.
There is a solution: full public financing of elections. Modeled on successful systems in Arizona, Connecticut, and Maine, the Fair Elections Now Act (FENA) would bring full public financing of elections to the U.S. Senate.
