End Citizens United // Let America Vote (ECU // LAV) today endorsed Kelly Morrison for Minnesota’s 3rd Congressional District. Morrison is refusing corporate PAC contributions in her campaign.
“We need new, bold leaders who aren’t afraid to stand up against corporate greed and the wealthy elite—and that’s Kelly Morrison,” said End Citizens United // Let America Vote President Tiffany Muller. “She’s seen the devastating effects of MAGA extremism and spent her time in Minnesota’s State Senate fighting to safeguard individual rights from MAGA attacks. Not only has Kelly never taken corporate PAC money, but she’s already taken on Big Pharma and won once before. She knows we cannot achieve true progress until we root out the corruption in Congress. We’re proud to endorse Kelly and look forward to helping her win.”
“Big Pharma and other corporate special interests have taken advantage of our campaign finance system and of the American people for too long,” said Kelly Morrison, “It’s why I’ve never taken a penny from corporate PACs. I’ve stood up to Big Pharma—and won—in Minnesota, and will do the same in Washington. Working families will always know they have someone fighting to deliver results for them on the issues that matter most to them, like reproductive freedoms, climate change, and gun violence. I’m proud to be endorsed by End Citizens United // Let America Vote and look forward to working with them to get Big Money out of our politics and restore power back to the people.”
Morrison knows that our government can never truly reflect the people with Big Money and special interests corrupting our political system. During her time in the Minnesota State Senate, Morrison took on Big Pharma and won, passing legislation to reduce the cost of prescription medication. She has a proven track record of delivering results and passed over 80 bills in just 5 years. Morrison is committed to more transparency and accountability in Washington and supports key legislation like the DISCLOSE Act. She also strongly believes that we need to protect and expand voters’ access to the ballot box, which is why she supports federal legislation like the Freedom to Vote Act and the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
