Election and Ethics Reform



Home Page - Education - Foreign Policy - Publications - Executive Board

Ethics and election reform is the reform which makes all other reform possible. By researching campaign finance, redistricting, electoral college, and other policies, we seek to outline a path for legislators, special interest groups, and concerned citizens to restore power to the people in this representative democracy. Much as the leaders of the Progressive Era sought to enable citizen power through direct election of US Senators, the ballot initiative, the Australian ballot, and other crucial reforms, we seek to promote policies which will pave the way for progressive policy reform in other domestic and foreign policy arenas.
