We believe that the root of our nation's inability to meaningfully address today's intractable problems lies in the wholesale corruption of the democratic process by unlimited and exponentially-growing monetary contributions to federal election campaigns. As Congress has proven unable to address this issue and has, in fact, worsened it through the repeal of prior reform laws, we call on the Executive Branch to order the FEC, FCC, and any related federal agencies to establish a 90 day limit on campaign activities for all national elections. We believe that establishing this limit will have the beneficial side effect of reducing the level of financing required to conduct a campaign for office, thereby decreasing the impact of the inherent conflicts of interest in the current finance system.
