We have raised over $230 million to fight back against the powerful special interests and have over 1.4 million individual donors.

Over the coming years, we will continue combatting big money in politics, voter suppression, and corruption, both federally and at the state level, through organizing, electoral work, research and messaging, and legislative advocacy.
