A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll has found that 84% of respondents believe that special interests have too much influence in the political process - and the Citizens United decision will only make this worse. It's time to pass the Fair Elections Now Act.
"What’s more, a whopping 93 percent believe there’s too much partisan infighting; 84 percent think the special interests have too much influence over legislation; nearly three-quarters say that not enough has been done to regulate Wall Street and the banking industry; and an equal 61 percent complain that both Democrats and Republicans in Congress aren’t willing to compromise."
