In his article, How to Get Our Democracy Back, Professor Lawrence Lessig argues that if you want change, you have to change Congress. He proposes a three-part solution to the crisis facing our democracy: Publicly-financed elections; a 7-year ban on former members serving as lobbyists, and, in the wake of the recent Citizen’s United Supreme Court case, a constitutional amendment that would give Congress the power to regulate campaign finance. (Read more on the amendment here.) If you agree with Professor Lessig’s arguments and want to move real reform forward, sign this petition below.
