Wealthy donors shouldn’t be able to buy themselves a seat in Congress. Our democracy is founded on the principle of we the people,not we the super PACs.
But legislative attacks and court decisions over the last decade have broken our campaign finance system.
Thirteen years ago, the Supreme Court ruled in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission that corporations and other outside groups can spend unlimited amounts of money in elections. This decision ushered in a new era of political spending by the wealthiest Americans — and left the rest of us behind.
Last year, we were outspent 6:1. This was mainly due to outside spending by super PACs for our opponent — so we know firsthand how Citizens United has corrupted our elections.
Kirsten doesn’t accept a dime from corporate PACs. She’s been endorsed by End Citizens United and will fight hard in Congress to repair our broken campaign finance system.
Kirsten is a mom, an environmental attorney, and a former State Legislator who has spent the past six years fighting to restore funding to public schools, protect Arizona's natural resources, and make our communities safer.
She’s ready to take that fight to Washington to find common-sense solutions to the challenges we’re facing here in Arizona's Sixth Congressional District.
