We asked every candidate for U.S. Congress 18 simple yes-or-no questions about important pro-democracy reforms — and we’re holding the winners accountable to their answers.
No single solution will solve all the challenges our democracy faces, but this comprehensive agenda helps policy makers and voters know there are concrete steps we can take and proven solutions we can pass to make our government work for everyone.
