Goal
Empowering People Over Special Interests
We know what is wrong with politics today: big corporate money drowns out voters, and politicians choose special interests over regular people. Too many politicians vote for corporate tax breaks, subsidies, and bailouts for the rich and powerful that most people oppose. And they implement voting procedures designed to make it harder to register and vote. It sometimes seems that corporate special interests control everything—and even threaten our private online data. It’s time to break the political grip of corporate interests and empower people in politics and society.
