We can elect those who support positive change and vote out those who do not. There are many important issues. Campaign finance reform is one of them. We face complex challenges in our communities and society. Simplistic answers are not enough.
Money can buy a barrage of manipulative advertising.
Candidates with less money are swamped by those with more. A growing need for funds to finance increasingly expensive campaigns makes our elected representatives beholden to those with the cash. And good people who do not have big money, or access to it, do not have a fair chance to run for office and win. We can change all this. Tell your representatives to support effective reforms.
