The public is losing faith in Congress. With so much pressure to fundraise to win and keep their offices, politicians focus on donors rather than the people they are supposed to represent. Too many politicians appear to care more about what lobbyists and powerful interests think than they do about the pressing problems faced by most Americans.

Specifically, we demand that politicians sign the Voters First Pledge to:

1. Make Elections Fair. Establish and enforce campaign spending limits by providing a set amount of public funding for all candidates who agree to take no private contributions.

2. Restore Accountability. Pass and enforce meaningful new restrictions on gifts and travel from lobbyists and other powerful interests for members of Congress.

3. Protect Voters' Right-To-Know. Require full disclosure on the internet of all lobbyists' contributions and any fundraising help members of Congress get from lobbyists.

This campaign is a joint effort by Public Campaign Action Fund, Common Cause, Public Citizen, and other national institutions.
