Running for office today comes with a hefty price tag.
In “Democracy Vouchers and the Promise of Fairer Elections in Seattle,” authors Jen Heerwig and Brian McCabe examine the promising case study of Seattle. The city was one of the first to implement a public financing model that places money directly in the hands of voters, which they can give to candidates of their choosing.
On Friday, March 14, at 2PM ET, in conversation with Campaign Legal Center Senior Legal Counsel Aaron McKean, Heerwig and McCabe will offer important takeaways from Seattle that can guide the implementation — and protection — of public financing systems nationwide.
