SPREAD THE WORD! CONTACT FIVE FRIENDS - OR MORE - AND TELL THEM ABOUT THE GRAFT TAX AND HOW TO STOP IT.

The breaks and policy favors state lawmakers furnish their biggest campaign donors cost the average taxpayer over $1,300 a year. Campaign finance reform that weans elected officials from the influence of wealthy special interests costs just over $1 per taxpayer. You can pay a little for clean government or you will pay much more for the favors politicians do for their big campaign contributors.

Urge the governor, your state senator and state representative to support campaign finance reform legislation at least as strong or stronger than the Ellis-Erpenbach bill (Senate Bill 12).
