End Citizens United // Let America Vote today endorsed Congressman John Sarbanes. Sarbanes authored the For the People Act, a once-in-a-generation anti-corruption and voting rights bill, and led the fight to pass it through Congress.

“There is no bigger champion in the fight to get Big Money out of politics and protect the freedom to vote than Congressman John Sarbanes. He wrote the For the People Act, the most significant anti-corruption and voting rights legislation in generations, and helped champion it in Congress, getting it designated as H.R. 1 and passed through the House. We are forever grateful for his determination and leadership in this fight and we are proud to endorse him for re-election,” said End Citizens United // Let America Vote President Tiffany Muller.

“It is thanks to the work of End Citizens United and Let America Vote that we have made progress on getting wealthy special interests out of politics and ensuring that every American can make their voice heard at the ballot box. Their work and advocacy got H.R. 1 through the House and has made protecting our democracy and ending dark money a top priority for voters and for Democrats in Congress. I’m honored to have their endorsement,” said Congressman John Sarbanes.
