D.C. Fair Elections Act Signed into Law

Washington, D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser has signed the Fair Elections Act into law. The bill puts democracy back in the hands of everyday voters by matching $5 for every $1 contributed to candidates who agree to only accept small contributions. The bill will help make sure D.C. elected officials are accountable to working people – not mega-donors and corporations.

CWA members have been leading the fight for small donor public financing programs across the country because they amplify the voices of working people.
