Click here http://townhall.fairelectionsnow.org TODAY, February 25 at 6:00 P.M. EST for a virtual town hall meeting with Fair Elections Now Act (H.R. 1826) lead House sponsor, Rep. John B. Larson (D-Conn.).

Katrina vanden Heuvel, editor of The Nation, editorializes on the need for the Fair Elections Now Act in the wake of the Citizens United decision by the Supreme Court.

Angela Migally, an attorney at the Brennan Center for Justice, makes the case for public financing of congressional elections in The Hill.

In a press conference today, Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Rep. Chris Van Hollen (D-M.D.) revealed a legislative response to the Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United. "We need to move very quickly to blunt the corrosive impact of this decision on democracy," noted Rep. Van Hollen. While Public Campaign and Common Cause agree with this assessment, we believe that any response must go further to include public financing of congressional elections.

Citizens United ruling fuels voter ire: new bipartisan polling reveals voters' anger with special interest influence in Washington. Politico reports that a whopping 79% of respondents think that Congress is controlled by those who finance their campaigns.
