Announcing Citizens' Campaign Finance Policy Tool

Submitted by Monica Rober on Fri, 04/16/2010 - 14:14

The Campaign Finance Institute has launched a new interactive tool for citizen policy analysts. The tool allows people to look at the types of donors in a state and and virtually tweak the campaign finance system to see the effects of increased participation and small donors."After more than a year of development, The Campaign Finance Institute (CFI), a non-partisan research institute affiliated with The George Washington University, has launched an exciting, fun-to-use tool. The tool allows people to pick a state, see what kind of donors are giving there now, and then make some choices about how to change that state's system. The graphs on the page redraw themselves as the user makes choices. "In state after state, the tool shows that with only a few simple changes, the power of the small donor can transform the system."Click here to try out the new policy tool!
