Fair Elections Makes It Rain On The New York State Senate

If you can't beat 'em, join 'em, right? Since the State Senate leadership is blocking a floor vote on Fair Elections, we decided to shower them with fake money. Paying for legislation is the way Albany works, and we figured that a bribe would help move things along. We should see a floor vote on comprehensive campaign reform package that includes public financing at its core, unless we didn't bring enough money. A big thank you to Represent.Us and The Metropolitan Council on Housing for financing our bribery session.

Call Senate Republican Leader Dean Skelos and Senate Independent Democratic Caucus Leader Jeff Klein and tell them it's time to raise the voices of everyday people in the political process. Give small donor pubic financing legislation a vote. Don't come home without it.
