Reduce the Influence of Money in U.S. Politics

When wealthy donors and corporations dominate campaign spending, ordinary voters lose influence over policy. This cause promotes campaign finance limits, disclosure requirements, public financing options, anti-corruption laws, and reforms that make elected officials responsive to constituents rather than mega-donors and dark-money groups.

Contact Your Representatives to Support the DISCLOSE Act

Advocate for Small-Donor Public Financing in Your State

Research if your state or municipality has active campaigns for 'democracy vouchers' or public matching fund programs. Join a local advocacy group to testify at city council or state legislature hearings in favor of these systems. These programs amplify the voices of everyday citizens by matching small donations with public funds.

Support Organizations Working on Campaign Finance Reform

Donate your time or money to non-partisan organizations like Issue One or OpenSecrets that track influence and lobby for structural reform. Sign up for their newsletters to stay informed about upcoming bills and key voting deadlines. By strengthening these organizations, you provide them with the resources needed to hold politicians accountable.

Engage in Local Ballot Initiatives and Referendums

Look for local ballot measures that aim to limit corporate influence or increase transparency in local elections. Volunteer to collect signatures to help get these initiatives on the ballot in your jurisdiction. Grassroots efforts often serve as successful testing grounds for national reform movements.

Use OpenSecrets to Research Your Candidates' Funding

Before every election, visit OpenSecrets.org to see which industries and mega-donors are funding your local and national candidates. Share these findings on social media or in community forums to educate your neighbors about potential conflicts of interest. Informed voters are better equipped to demand candidates who refuse corporate PAC money.
