Support is strong across all parties… 5 Now let me read you some information about a bill introduced in Congress earlier this year, called the Government by the People Act.. From what you know, would you favor or oppose this bill? +64 Republicans Independents Democrats This new law changes the way campaigns are financed. Under this law, candidates could run for Congress without needing to raise large campaign contributions. Instead, they would collect a large number of small contributions up to 150 dollars from individuals in their home states, and these contributions would be matched on a six-to-one basis by a public fund set aside for this purpose. Anyone making a small donation would get a refundable tax credit of twenty-five dollars. Each candidate's public funding would be strictly capped at a certain amount, and there would be strong enforcement of campaign finance laws including disclosure of all donations. BATTLEGROUND
