 At every level of government from congress to municipalities, we deserve a government that is accountable to all of us, not to just to wealthy donors.
Â
A small-donor matching program in Prince George's County will:
Â
-
Make county government accountable to all of us by giving candidates the opportunity to reject big donors and special interests money and to instead seek support from everyday residents
-
Amplify the voice of the average contributor through a tiered match system
-
Increase participation in county elections by empowering small donors
-
Break down the barriers to running for office by allowing county residents with strong ideas and a call to public service to run for office, regardless of their personal connections to wealthy donors or corporate contributors
Â
As a resident of Prince George's County, I urge our council members to introduce, support, and pass legislation to reduce the power of corporations, developers, and wealthy donors and ensure everyday residents have a bigger voice in our elections.
