Democracy in America is threatened. Increasingly, ordinary citizens have lost their influence over lawmaking and public policy, because candidates must raise huge sums to run for office.
Elected representatives are often concerned about financing their next campaign, candidates and elected officials are often at the mercy of the biggest donors rather than the true interests of voters in their district. The result is public policies that often fail to meet the needs and desires of most Americans.
But things are changing. Voters are disgusted, shocked and aware of the infusion of billions of dollars from mega-wealthy donors and Super-PACS in their attempts to influence elections and buy our elected officials. In a democracy, the voters choose their representatives, not a few self-selected oligarchs. Join us in our fight to preserve our democracy and our freedom.
