The Democrats changed the rules (original) (raw)
The Mission
Larry Lessig is running for president for one reason:
Fixing democracy can’t wait.
Again and again, what America wants, Congress doesn’t do — because the citizens who fund elections are represented, and the rest of us are not.
Every issue — from climate change to gun safety, from Wall Street reform to defense spending — is blocked by this fundamental problem: Congress does not represent the people.
The solution is to fix our democracy. First.
The Plan
Pass the Citizen Equality Act of 2017
The Citizen Equality Act of 2017 is a package of reforms that would allow Congress to listen to voters instead of a few funders.
It changes the way we fund campaigns, ends gerrymandering, and protects the right of all citizens to vote.
These reforms will give us — finally — what we were promised: a government of, by, and for the people.
