Money doesn't buy elections! Voters decide!

What You Say

Voters cast ballots — but fundraising dominance shapes who can run, who gets airtime, and which bills get hearings. FEC data shows super PACs and dark-money groups routinely outspend candidates in competitive races. Citizens United didn't eliminate corruption; it moved it to undisclosed channels. Public financing and real-time disclosure — in the Blueprint safeguards — restore voter agency.

The Stab

Try winning a Senate race without donors.
