The Supreme Court\u2019s disastrous decision in Ciudadanos unidos<\/em> left campaign finance reform in a seemingly hopeless state.\r\n\r\nBut Montana Gov. Steve Bullock saw hope. In a speech Tuesday at the Center for American Progress on the state of money in politics, the governor argued for \u201cwinning with the hand you\u2019ve got\u201d on campaign finance reform. In Montana\u2019s case, this \u201chand\u201d\u00a0includes working with Democratic and Republican legislators and advancing reform through executive orders, like Bullock\u2019s order requiring Montana candidates to disclose information about campaign contributions.\r\n\r\nIn Montana\u2019s unique political culture, candidates win by knocking on doors, keeping their promises, asking for a maximum $170 donation, and collecting nothing from corporations. As state attorney general, Bullock fought all the way to the Supreme Court to keep corporate money out of Montana politics. Despite a loss, Bullock led the legislature as governor to pass one of the most rigorous disclosure laws in the country to preserve the culture of Montana elections. And he did it with bipartisan support.\r\n\r\nThe story of Bullock\u2019s election and Montana\u2019s bipartisan embrace of campaign finance reform is unexpected in today\u2019s political climate. Bullock, a Democrat, was elected in 2016 by the same Montanans who gave Donald Trump an overwhelming majority in the presidential race. Bullock explains his success by pointing to the voters\u2019 desire for a candidate who will fight for the little guy. American voters share universal values \u2013 the hope for safety, a good job, and a better life for their children.\r\n\r\nBullock\u2019s message was a timely reminder that Americans are more similar than our polarized political culture \u2013 with its corporate political spending, dark money contributions, and assorted scandals \u2013 suggests. We should fight for a system that does not reflect the harsh contrast between red and blue politics, but the combination of purple that is somewhere in between. This truly representative democracy can only happen when we use the hand we\u2019ve got to fight for democratic institutions that represent the little guy.\r\n\r\nJane Hood y Lily Oberstein son pasantes de Common Cause.<\/em>\r\n\r\n###"}}]},"yoast_head":"\n‘Winning With the Hand We’ve Got’ -
