Say No to Big Money

We’ve already seen the results of Citizens United.  We know what happens when the special interests are left unchecked.  We know what the Koch Brothers, Karl Rove and their deep-pocketed friends can do when they have free reign to spend and spend and spend on political campaigns.

(WASHINGTON DC) - You’ve heard me say it before: The Supreme Court’s recent decision in McCutcheon v. FEC is another crack in the dam standing between us and unlimited political spending.

The decision eliminates the restrictions on how many campaigns wealthy donors can seek to influence. And let me tell you – it’s a step in the wrong direction.

I’ve joined with like-minded colleagues from the Senate calling on both parties to turn back McCutcheon.  It’s not too late to join the fight. Sign today!

We’ve already seen the results of Citizens United.  We know what happens when the special interests are left unchecked.  We know what the Koch Brothers, Karl Rove and their deep-pocketed friends can do when they have free reign to spend and spend and spend on political campaigns.

McCutcheon is another step in the wrong direction.  Stand with us and let’s stop them together. Add your name and tell leaders on both sides it’s time to turn back McCutcheon.

Thanks for standing with me.

 
Ron Wyden
