To: Jim Webb, Former Senator and Democratic presidential candidate
Jim Webb: Back up your words with reform
Put forward a concrete plan to fight big money in politics, empower voters, and build a democracy for the 21st century
Why is this important?
Former Senator and Democratic presidential candidate Jim Webb spoke clearly about the problem of money in politics this past Friday:
"The challenge that we have right now in the current political environment, money dominates the process like it never has before... I don’t believe that super PACs are ethically supportable concepts."
That's sound analysis, but words alone won't do any good. Senator Webb, and every other candidate for president, needs to put forward a comprehensive plan to restore our democracy, including public financing of elections, full disclosure of all campaign spending, and an end to Citizens United.
Tell Senator Webb to commit to a concrete plan to get big money out of politics and put We The People back in charge!
