John Tierney on "Supports publicly-financed campaigns"

Quotes

His Clean Money, Clean Elections Act (H.R. 1614) creates a voluntary system that gives candidates an option to forgo private funding without having to undermine their ability to run a competitive campaign. It also allows qualified candidates to run for public office without compromising their independence, since they won't have to ask for money from those with a vested interest in public policy.
