Our political system is broken. The officials we elect to represent us spend their time chasing big campaign checks and using their votes to do political favors for big-money special interests and lobbyists instead. It's time to do something about it -- and we can.

According to www.GovTrack.us", There is no legislation in this session of Congress for this subject term or committee.

End the Scandals, Empower Voters -- Support Clean Elections Reform
DeLay and Abramoff were just the beginning. New scandals involving the rotten triangle of special interest lobbyists, wealthy donors, and our elected officials continue to break while we pay the price for this "pay-to-play" political system.

But there is a real solution: Clean Elections campaign reform. Already working in 7 states and 2 cities, Clean Elections helps keep politicians working for the voters and not for the special interests and their lobbyists by providing public campaign funding to qualified candidates that agree to forgo private contributions and follow strict spending limits.

It's time to bring back the power of citizens to elect representatives not bought and paid for by special interest lobbyists and big-money donors.


TAKE ACTION HERE!
