Sam Waterston Talks Fair Elections

Submitted by Monica Rober on Mon, 09/27/2010 - 14:48

Actor Sam Waterston discusses the historic movement on Fair Elections on The Huffington Post."With Fair Elections, constituents don't have to wonder if their elected officials are standing up for them or their big money donors when casting their votes on Capitol Hill. Congress would be accountable to them, not wealthy donors or lobbyists. "...Every day, we see a steady stream of news reports of fundraisers with lobbyists, ongoing ethics investigations, and millions of dollars in outside secret spending. It is no wonder if we're angry ... or alienated."
