Rep. Summer Lee has introduced a bill that would ABOLISH super PAC spending in federal elections, severely curtailing the corrupting influence that billionaires and corporations exert in our political process.The bill places a $5,000 per calendar year limit on contributions to super PACs, effectively abolishing them.
For 15 years, super PACs have given billionaires, corporations, and other wealthy interests a backdoor to pour unlimited money into our elections. These unlimited contributions to super PACs, often totaling millions of dollars during federal elections, present the threat of corruption and the appearance of corruption in the political process. Further, super PACs have the power to shape elections, and candidates’ ability to direct massive contributions to super PACs can make or break campaigns.
Our democracy is meant to work by and for we, the people. This legislation would mark a major step forward in our fight for a republic where every voice and every vote counts.
