Campaign Finance Reform

Facebook Twitter Instagram Phone SMS

Campaign Finance Reform

The Citizens United ruling is one of the most destructive decisions ever handed down by the U.S. Supreme Court. It ushered in an era of unchecked and unaccounted for political spending, and our nation has paid a dear price for it. I support campaign finance reform and efforts to reduce the influence of money in politics. I support efforts to bring greater transparency to campaign finance, overturn the Citizens United decision, and block illegal foreign funds from influencing our elections. During my first term in Congress, I was proud to help introduce and pass the For the People Act, a landmark campaign finance and ethics reform package. As we’ve increasingly dealt with the effects of special interests in campaign finance, it’s important that all elected officials take a stand against letting a small group of funders influence our elections. And because of my commitment to campaign finance reform, I will continue to refuse any corporate PAC donations. I am proud that our campaign has earned the support of End Citizens United, a national organization committed to fighting for campaign finance reform.
Key Actions
  • Helped introduce and pass landmark campaign finance reform legislation, the For the People Act, to reduce the influence of special interests, mega-donors, and lobbyists in our democratic system
  • Introduced and passed legislation as part of the For the People Act that would assess current cyber, terror, and foreign-based threats to U.S. election systems
