Today is the 10th anniversary of the Supreme Court case Citizens United vs. Federal Elections Commission.

We know that no issue we care about -- from gun safety to immigration, from climate to education to paid family leave -- will be handled well unless our democracy is in better shape. And it's hardly a democracy if Citizens United means dollars can drown out the will of the people. 

Because of that, Pete for America does not take money from corporate PACs, fossil fuel executives, and lobbyists. So with 13 days until the Iowa Caucuses, we are calling on every supporter reading this to donate $3 to show the strength of a true grassroots, people-powered movement. Thank you.

Hi there,

10 years ago, the Citizens United decision put our democracy up for sale. The Supreme Court decided the voices of dark money and corporate PACs speak louder than those of everyday Americans. 

This decision created a campaign finance system that allows dark money to flow through our democracy -- corrupting our election processes by creating a clear channel for special interests and corporations to weigh in on the election or defeat of a candidate through well funded political communications. The Supreme Court's ruling effectively drowned out the voices of ordinary Americans in their own democracy.

Today, our campaign is turning the page on not just Trump and Trumpism, but also on the corruption ingrained in our government. We're ushering in a new era of politics, but we can't do it without your support.

Our campaign does not accept corporate PAC money or donations from fossil fuel executives and lobbyists. But we're up against dark money groups that are playing by a different set of rules. Just last week, it was released that a pro-Bernie, dark money group is running digital ads against Pete in Iowa and New Hampshire. 

This paid media campaign is pouring tens of thousands of dollars into spreading falsehoods about Pete's plan to make sure all Americans have access to affordable health care.

In the days leading up to the most defining contest in the primaries, we need to make sure we're able to run a campaign that can win on February 3rd and defeat Donald Trump in November -- which means spreading our message of unity and combating these falsehoods. We need our grassroots supporters to stand up, stand strong, and make a donation toward change.

History does not define our future. But change only happens when we work together. Are you ready?

Pete for America
