Jack, sign the petition to Congress: Get foreign money out of U.S. elections!
SIGN THE PETITION
Recent reports and investigations have shed light on the extent of foreign influence in our elections. A startling revelation by Forbes indicates that Russia has secretly spent over $300 million to influence foreign elections. This is not an isolated incident, but rather a part of a larger, more concerning trend.
The Federal Elections Commission's (FEC) decision to allow foreign companies to spend on U.S. elections has opened the door for those entities to manipulate the outcomes of our elections, undermining the democratic process.

Loopholes in our current legislation, such as those exposed by the Citizens United ruling, allow foreign-influenced corporations to spend unlimited amounts in our elections. This loophole is being addressed by legislation introduced by Democratic Rep. Jamie Raskin, which aims to get foreign money out of U.S. elections.
Join us in calling for an end to foreign-influenced corporate spending in U.S. elections. We demand that the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) adopts regulations that identify foreign-owned companies spending corporate funds to influence elections. We also call for the closure of the Citizens United loophole that allows for-profit U.S. corporations appreciably owned by foreign investors to pour unlimited cash into American elections.
Our democracy represents our collective voice, and we must protect it from foreign influence. Jack, I urge you to take a stand and support measures to eliminate foreign money from our elections. Your support can make a significant difference in preserving the integrity of our democracy.
