Sign the Petition: Fair Elections Now!

The horrendous ruling by the Roberts Court to allow unlimited political spending by corporations and unions requires a game-changing response. On Friday, Bob Edgar shared the cornerstone of Common Cause’s plan with Keith Olbermann and his viewers: Pass the Fair Elections Now Act.
 

Please watch the video, then sign our petition below.

The Supreme Court has opened the floodgates to out-of-control corporate and union spending in elections. This wrong-headed ruling doesn't just disrupt the way elections work. It poses a direct and immediate threat to the vibrancy of our democracy.

The best and most comprehensive option available to change the rules of the game in Washington is the Fair Elections Now Act. By allowing candidates to run highly competitive races that rely on small donor contributions and limited public funding, it puts voters -- not corporations and unions -- in the driver's seat.

I strongly urge you to support the Fair Elections Now Act.
