End Citizens United

Democratic activists fighting for true campaign finance reform.

[End Citizens United @StopBigMoney]

Today marks 16 years since the Supreme Court put a price tag on our democracy with the disastrous Citizens United vs. FEC decision.

The ruling fundamentally changed our campaign finance system by opening the floodgates to unlimited and undisclosed money in our elections.

Congratulations to ECU-endorsed @Adrian_Fontes on officially securing the Democratic nomination for #AZSoS. He knows corrupt politicians are trying to disenfranchise Arizonans, which is exactly why his experience and leadership is crucial. We look forward to helping reelect him.

Congratulations to ECU-endorsed @krismayes on securing the Democratic nomination for #AZAG. She’s been a fighter for working Arizonans and will always work to protect Arizonans and ensure the government is accountable to the people. We look forward to helping reelect her.

Congratulations to ECU-endorsed @katiehobbs on securing the Democratic nomination for #AZGov. When it comes to lowering costs, protecting democracy, and strengthening transparency, Arizonans can trust she’s the one for the job. We look forward to helping reelect her.

Congratulations to ECU-endorsed @AdelitaForAZ on officially securing the Democratic nomination for #AZ07! Since being in Congress, #UnrigWashington member Rep. Grijalva has stood up for constituents and shown her support for commonsense anti-corruption reforms. We look forward to supporting her reelection.

Minnesotans deserve a senator who will take on these powerful interests – someone who will listen to them, fight for them, and remain accountable only to them.

That’s the senator I’ll be.

[End Citizens United @StopBigMoney]

Minnesotans are tired of paying the cost of corruption. That’s why ECU-endorsed candidate @kaelaberg is committed to holding Washington accountable and passing commonsense reform that works for working people.

[End Citizens United @StopBigMoney]

At today’s roundtable in the Twin Cities, we joined ECU-endorsed candidate @kaelaberg to discuss how we can’t have affordability without accountability. As a member of #UnrigWashington, Kaela Berg is leading by example and championing commonsense reform.

[Kristen McDonald Rivet @McdonaldRivet]

This is not an unpopular opinion, this is just common-sense: No one in government should be using their position to enrich themselves while working people struggle, regardless of Party.

I introduced a bill to completely ban Congressional stock and prediction markets trading.

Thank you for having me @StopBigMoney.

The SAVE America Act is nothing more than a desperate attempt by a corrupt administration to cling to power. Don’t them silence your voice at the ballot box. #PayToVoteSAVEAct

[End Citizens United @StopBigMoney]

The same politicians telling everyday Americans that things can't get better are the same ones cashing in checks from Big Money donors. That's why @peggyflanagan refuses to take a dime of corporate PAC money.

[Tiffany Muller @Tiffany_Muller]

Another town hall for the books! Thanks for joining us, Minneapolis. @peggyflanagan, it's always a pleasure to talk all things democracy with you. Minnesotans have a real reform champion in you.

[End Citizens United @StopBigMoney]

We just wrapped up a town hall in Minneapolis with @PeggyFlanagan! Once again, voters are showing they're sick and tired of the political corruption at the root of their higher prices across the board.

[Sheldon Whitehouse @SenWhitehouse]

It takes two to collude, Mr. Blanche.

[Chris Pappas @ChrisPappasNH]

Our election system is rigged. Billionaires and corporate special interests have the power to drown out voters.

We need to get big money out of politics to restore trust in our government.

[Rep. Joe Neguse @RepJoeNeguse]

Instead of banning Members of Congress from trading stocks, House Republicans are now pushing a bill creating new loopholes to keep this insidious practice going!

[Mike Levin @MikeLevin]

For years, banning congressional stock trading was a rare thing most Americans actually agreed on. We were one vote away from getting it done.

So naturally, Trump and Mike Johnson are setting it on fire.

This week they’re rushing a fake “ban” to the floor. One that lets members keep every stock they already own, keep cashing the dividends, and sell whenever they feel like it with a little heads-up. Oh, and you can still trade on inside info. Just launder it through bonds, crypto, or commodities first.

It doesn’t touch the President, the Vice President, or their families. The exact people with the most market-moving power on Earth.

They carved out a loophole big enough to land a free Qatari jet in.

But gutting the bill wasn’t insulting enough. They’re attaching the SAVE Act, their favorite voter-suppression pet project.

Specifically so no Democrat can possibly vote yes. Poisoning their own bill on purpose, then pointing at us like we’re the problem.

This wasn’t a mistake. They took a real, bipartisan, wildly popular reform and swapped it for a fake ban bolted onto a voter-suppression bill, and they’re betting you won’t read the fine print.

Pass a real ban. All the trades. No exceptions for the powerful, starting at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave.

Rep. Mike Lawler’s failed leadership has led to higher costs and fewer opportunities for New Yorkers.

@CaitforNewYork is running for #NY17 to change that.

She brings a new standard to public service, one that Mike Lawler has completely failed to provide for New Yorkers.

[Cait Conley @CaitforNewYork]

While Mike Lawler was building his business as a political consultant and operative, I was leading America’s sons and daughters in defense of democracy.

And since he’s been in Congress, he’s consistently done Donald Trump’s bidding. Because at the end of day, Mike Lawler will always put profits over people.

When I take office, I will help restore the promise of this country that I’ve fought so hard to defend — by reining in Trump’s corruption and making the American Dream a reality for Hudson Valley families once again.
