🔥 120+ activists & leaders from 34 cosponsors packed the room to fuel the fight for elections based on ideas, not money.

📢 Tomorrow, @CASenCaballero & @ilike_mike decide if SB42 moves forward—let’s make sure it gets to the Senate floor!

Huge thanks to SB42 author @SenatorUmberg & joint authors @BenAllenCA @SenCervantes & @alex_lee!

Public financing is the most effective counter we have to the corrupting influence of big money in politics. California’s Prop 4 would give the legislature and local governments the opportunity to create new public financing programs. https://t.co/IkvMxGGQyN

Voters' overwhelming frustration with the flood of money in our elections played a central role in shaping this year's midterms. “Big money was on the ballot in a way it hasn’t been in any election of my lifetime,” @DanWeiner329 told @Bloomberg. https://t.co/1MZhSIT6hQ

🗳️ Californians will decide on 14 ballot measures this November 3 and voters have until 8:00 pm to return their ballots.

If you or your friends and family still need to fill in your ballots, here's what Courage California recommends:

✅ Vote YES on propositions 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, & 40.
❌ Vote NO on propositions 38, 39, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45.

In the 2026 midterms, citizens in multiple states will decide ballot initiatives relating to campaign finance reform. It’s part of the larger story of voters’ fury over political corruption. https://t.co/7U3AmQWmQh

VOTE YES ON PROP 4! The amount of money in politics is outrageous. Prop 4 lets California communities change the way we finance campaigns so elections are won, not bought! #YesOnProp4

Record-breaking cash from superrich donors pouring into governors’ races raises the question of how much influence the spenders will ultimately have over policymaking by the officials they spent so much to help elect. https://t.co/emEAP8Wf6K

@StopBigMoney As George Skelton of the LA Times said, "If the public doesn’t finance political candidates, special interests will happily step in."

You know what that means if you want politicians to listen to the public instead of special interests: Vote Yes on 4 in California!

[End Citizens United @StopBigMoney]

Corporate special interests and big-money donors have too much influence over our elections.

Prop 4 gives Californians more tools to push back and puts more power in the hands of voters and communities. 🗳️

Vote YES on Prop 4.

TV ads from both parties have embraced messaging about ethics and money in politics.

Billionaires have a stranglehold over California politics.

But that could start to change after tomorrow's election.

Prop 4 would let the state start doing what is already common practice elsewhere, public financing of campaigns.

Vote YES on California's Prop 4

Elections should be won, not bought. The amount of money in politics is outrageous. It’s corrupting our democracy.

Since 2020, more than $1 billion has been spent on California state candidate races alone.

All that money buys access for corporate special interests, while shutting out the rest of us.

Proposition 4 will allow California communities to set up public funding systems to empower voters and let qualified candidates compete against corporate special interests and billionaires. !!@@!!

Vote Yes on Proposition 4: Democracy Shouldn’t Depend on Wealth

https://t.co/O8iSa9T4sm

California can give more candidates a path to office—and more voters a meaningful voice—by opening the door to public campaign financing. https://t.co/eoZmFWEwd5 have great deals...

Hoping Prop 4 passes.

This year, super PACs received $4.2 BILLION from 515 donors who gave at least $1 MILLION.

A small number of the ultra wealthy are dominating our political landscape.

Oligarchy is crushing our democracy.

[CA Clean Money Action Fund @CACleanMoney]

@BrennanCenter Thanks for pointing out how Proposition 4 in California will give California the freedom to pass small donor public funding of campaigns. So vote Yes on 4 if you're in California -- and on the other reform measures in the Brennan Center's report in other states!

[Brennan Center @BrennanCenter]

This election, 25 ballot measures in 20 states could reshape money in politics, voting rights, and redistricting. https://t.co/flP299dz3l
