For the People: Protecting and Restoring Faith in Our Democracy | 4/18/2019

Publication date: 
04/2019

The “For the People Act” seeks to restore faith in our republican democracy as a genuinely representative system open to broad participation and protected from corruption and the outsized influence of special interest money. The provisions of the bill would make it easier for people to vote and strengthen campaign finance & ethics laws.
