An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Abolish Super PACs and Get Dark Money Out of Elections

2 so far! Let’s get to 5 signers!

Support legislation to abolish Super PACs. The Supreme Court's Citizens United decision opened the floodgates to unlimited, largely anonymous corporate spending in our elections, and the result is a system where billionaires and corporations buy political outcomes while ordinary voters get drowned out. That is not democracy — it's an auction. Super PACs allow outside groups to spend unlimited sums influencing federal races with minimal transparency. Candidates end up accountable to their mega-donors, not to the people they represent. I expect you to back a legislative fix — whether that's a constitutional amendment, a reversal through statute, or aggressive disclosure requirements as a first step. The status quo is indefensible, and I'll be watching how you act on this.
