Tim and Carolyn recently reached out to let us know that they are investing in the future of democracy by including Common Cause in their estate planning.

“One thing I try to do with my giving is to make systemic changes. To me, one of the most fundamental systems is preserving and enhancing democracy. One thing that really appeals to me is ALL Common Cause programs are focused on enhancing democracy — fighting the corrupting influence of money in politics, voter suppression, gerrymandering, and corruption in government. I appreciate that you’re nonpartisan. You’ll go after a corrupt Democrat just as fast as a corrupt Republican.”

American democracy is resilient — and Common Cause will do whatever it takes to ensure we leave a strong democracy for the next generation.

Just like after Watergate, we’re ready to break through the Trump era with a new movement for civic reform. We’re lifting up the young leaders who will define the next 50 years of Common Cause — and joining them as we take action in our communities for a government that works for We The People, and nobody else.
