Anybody know what the "Government By the People Act" is?
from my email, an anti-union, pro-TPP "Democrat" wants me to support the "Government By the People Act" which he says is endorsed by "PIRG".
How do we GET BACK to government of, by, and for the people?
We get big money out of politics.
That’s why I signed on today as an original cosponsor of the Government By the People Act.
That’s how we can start making Congress accountable to you again.
That’s what we must do to stop the Koch’s and others from opening their fat checkbooks to buy influence and loopholes in legislation.
For years, I’ve worked in Congress to reduce the influence of big money, special interests. The Government By the People Act does that while increasing your voice and the power of your vote.
