End Citizens United // Let America Vote Action Fund Launch Ad Campaign Thanking Rep. Lauren Underwood for Supporting H.R. 1

Feb 04, 2021

End Citizens United // Let America Vote Action Fund is leading a coalition of groups including, Communications Workers of America, Brady PAC, Common Cause, and Public Citizen, in launching a $1.3 million TV and digital ad campaign thanking Congresswoman Lauren Underwood (IL-14) for supporting the For the People Act (H.R. 1). In the 116th Congress, Underwood and House Democrats made passing the For the People Act their first legislative priority of the session. The bill protects the foundational principles of our democracy and is the most comprehensive anti-corruption and democracy reform legislation in decades. It brings dark money into the light, strengthens ethics law, and protects the right to vote for everyone.

“In the 116th Congress, we were grateful Lauren Underwood’s leadership made passing the For the People Act the first bill of that session. Now, following an attack on our democracy––including an insurrection at the Capitol––it’s time to finish the job and pass this into law,” said ECU and LAV Action Fund President Tiffany Muller. “ECU and LAV thank Congresswoman Underwood for supporting H.R. 1 and for continuing to fight to repair and protect our democracy and take on the corruption that is holding the country back.”

The ad campaign will air in Congresswoman Underwood’s district and Washington D.C. with television and digital ads starting February 3rd.

People know Washington isn’t working for them, but Lauren Underwood is changing that.

She supported the largest anti-corruption bill in history, and now’s her chance to make it law. 

Thank Rep. Underwood for supporting the For the People Act.
