Hale supports critical reform legislation like the For the People Act (H.R. 1)
End Citizens United (ECU) and Let America Vote (LAV) today endorsed Christina Hale in Indiana’s Fifth Congressional District. Hale is an advocate for Indiana families and is fighting against corporate special interests, and supports crucial reform legislation like the For the People Act, the most sweeping anti-corruption, voting rights and ethics reform bill since Watergate.
“Christina Hale has worked for decades with the same goal in mind: to get things done for Hoosier families,” said ECU and LAV President Tiffany Muller. “Whether as a leader in the nonprofit world or working across the aisle in the Indiana General Assembly, Christina knows Indiana families deserve a representative who will work to solve tough problems, like lowering the cost of prescription drugs and providing access to quality healthcare. We’re proud to endorse Christina Hale, and we look forward to helping her win.”
“Not a day goes by where I don’t speak to a voter in our district who’s deeply concerned about the rising cost of healthcare and prescription drugs,” said Christina Hale. “And I know where they’re coming from. As a single mom raising my son, I couldn’t always afford health insurance for myself, and I lived with the fear of being one medical emergency from missing a car payment or worse. I’m running for Congress so that no one has to go through that experience. And I won’t ever put the demands of insurance companies ahead of Hoosier families. I’m proud to be endorsed by End Citizens United and Let America Vote, and I look forward to working alongside them in the fight to restore our democracy.”
ECU and LAV recently merged to combat the two biggest challenges facing our democracy: Big Money and voter suppression. ECU is dedicated to getting Big Money out of politics and fixing the rigged system in Washington so that the government works for all Americans. LAV is building a grassroots effort to fight back against voter suppression and protect every American’s right to vote.
ECU and LAV will work to end our rigged political system by electing reform champions, passing meaningful legislative reforms, and elevating these issues in the national conversation. ECU has more than four million members nationwide, including over 7,100 in IN-05, and is entirely grassroots-funded with an average donation of just $14. In 2018, over 1,000 LAV grassroots volunteers knocked on over 340,000 doors, made 112,000 calls, and sent 341,000 texts to help elect 100 pro-democracy leaders.
