Democracy Loses When Big Money Wins!
Nonpartisan effort to get BIG money out of VA politics & end Citizens United.
Corps ≠ People | $$$ ≠ Free Speech

#Virginia is an outlier on a national scale when it comes to campaign finance law, placing no limits on the amount that corporations, wealthy individuals, and PACs can spend in our elections. Wanna help us return #powertothepeople? Take action at https://t.co/1OIifLuw8d

Seriously embarrassing!

You might be wondering why the DNC is so maladroit, commissioning a flawed 2024 autopsy and then burying it.

Reformers have proposed DNC fixes for the past decade to boost accountability. The proposals have been blocked by DNC chairs like Jaime Harrison.

Yes, it’s outrageous. We need good government legislation including campaign finance limits in Pennsylvania. peaceful civil disobedience is needed & I was happy to be arrested through the march on Harrisburg @EndPACorruption. let’s start screaming, loud and clear. #peoplepower

[Stephen Caruso @StephenJ_Caruso]

New: Sports betting firms and skills game have spent $8.1 million and counting on Pennsylvania primaries, mostly for or against three GOP state senators. It's the latest in a war over both gambling laws and the ideology of the Senate Republican caucus.

The end result of our two party system is a bizarre Stockholm Syndrome where voters constantly defend their own abusive party against the other party.
(And yes, any party that lets 800 people a day die from poverty in the USA is abusive)

.@nytimes highlights Buckley v. Valeo (1976), which shaped today’s campaign finance system — amplifying the influence of big money.

We're restoring people's voices in elections.

VA should learn from PA/tactics of @EndPACorruption. Leaders from both parties won't let good governance bills be passed because incumbents benefit from status quo.This requires non-violent civil disobedience!Proud to have been arrested! @ssurovell @SpeakerDonScott @DelCiaPrice85

[Nancy Morgan @nancyruthmorgan]

At the PA capital before we were arrested. Here's a shout out📢👍 for @EndPACorruption & the 4 day march and a non-violent day of action at the Capital. Both parties benefit from the status quo. Let's tell them that this is WRONG! #peoplepower.

Indeed. Whose side are they on? The people or the billionaires? Pennsylvania showed the world the need for civic courage, and engagement to hold our legislators accountable.

They are singing:
“Joe Pittman and McClinton
Matt Bradford and Kim Ward
All let our good bills die unread
Neglected and ignored - -
Which side are you on?”

Congress can and must act to enact nationwide protections against racial and partisan discrimination in redistricting. States can also adopt their own safeguards to ensure that voters are shielded from discrimination even when federal protections falter. https://t.co/ZYrxhUr1UU

NEW: Another Democratic dark money network with ties to billionaires Stephen Mandel and Reid Hoffman is funneling millions to Democratic races. Report by @donnydonny, including states where the secretive nonprofit is sending $$:

The chair of @HouseIntel, Rep. Rick Crawford of #AR01, did not respond when we asked him about his Intelligence Committee members buying stocks in companies on which they receive classified briefings. @ArkansasOnline @ArkTimes @ArkAdvocate @Region8News

The 2026 midterms are approaching and AI-backed money is flooding election spending and making headlines.

Decisions like Buckley v. Valeo have limited lawmakers’ ability to set guardrails.

This isn't about party — it’s about who sets the rules: voters or the courts.

Just fix it! Great article!!The Institutionalization of Corruption in the Virginia General Assembly https://t.co/5dIskxKTpQ

[Clean Virginia @clean_virginia]

Senator Louise Lucas lays out how the rapid growth of data centers, fueled by generous tax breaks, has gone far beyond what anyone in the General Assembly expected. Northern Virginia is now the data center capital of the world, and the consequences are impossible to ignore. Tell elected leaders to make Big Tech pay its fair share. https://t.co/9zcIlFzrqo

[Jeff Clements @ClementsJeff]

The dark money DC-based Super PAC complex is coming for city council races now. Another reason so many Americans support the constitutional amendment solution to the corruption and money in politics crisis. https://t.co/mzn0aDBVgl

[Clean Virginia @clean_virginia]

Virginia lawmakers left Richmond without the budget after leadership of the House refused to budge in their position to protect tax breaks for data centers. Lawmakers will come back to the table in 1 month to continue the negotiation. Tell our elected leaders to tax Big Tech! https://t.co/9zcIlFzrqo

Three Decades Waiting: Virginia Still Fails on Campaign Finance Reform. As our legislative session comes to a close, Virginia legislators have once again failed to pass meaningful campaign finance reform. https://t.co/rm0E2n1np3

[BigMoneyOutVA @MoneyOutVA]

Thanks to all of your who came to my farewell happy hour! It has been awesome and I hope that eventually Virginia will actually pass some reasonable campaign finance bills! Heading off to PA to enact good governance legislation there.
