Submitted by Monica Rober on Mon, 04/13/2009 - 15:01

The director of Democracy Matters at UCLA has an Op-Ed in The Daily Bruin discussing the need for Fair Elections."...with the implementation of the Fair Elections Now Act, average Americans who are not backed by special interests will be able to fun for office. Once in office, elected officials would be able to legislate on behalf of their constituents and not wealthy campaign contributors."
