Today, I stopped the Congressional elecion fund contribution. Oh, they can replace it with corporate donor money from those unhappy with Biden, they don't need my money. I split what I was giving with Ruben Gallego, running for Senate in Arizona, and added the other half to Biden-Harris re-election.

My sincere hope, if Biden is re-elected, and Democrats get control of Congress is for a two year blitz of laws to set protections in place so this kind of crap stops. NO MORE CORPORATE POLITICAL CONTRIBUTIONS PACS or WAYS AROUND LIMITS.

Personally, I'd be in favor of cutting contributions back to $100 per individual, not allowing personal fortunes to be used and letting it go at that.
