Public Financing of Campaigns in Berkeley @ North Berkeley Senior Center
May 21 @ 7:00 pm – 9:00 pm
 The City of Berkeley’s Fair Campaign Practices Commission will consider whether to recommend that the Berkeley City Council establish a public financing system – one of the best tools we have at our disposal to fix our broken electoral process. As public officials are being bought and sold by billionaires and wealthy special interests, the need for comprehensive campaign finance reform is more urgent now than ever. Sign up to attend and testify in support of public financing! Public financing allows candidates to rely on small dollar donations and aims … Continued
