The incredibly smart and well spoken Lawrence Lessig, of Free Culture and Creative Commons fame, has lanched Change Congress.
It’s purpose is to change congress for the better. By how do you ask?
Listen, and/or watch the initial Change Congress press release on blip.tv. Lawrence Lessig explains in plain English the goals of this new organization. Change Congress simply put is…
I believe candidates should:
- not accept contributions from registered lobbyists or PACs.
(JohnEdwards.com - Government Reform) - support the abolition of “earmarks.” (TaxPayer.net | PorkBusters.org)
- support reform to increase transparency in Congress. (Sunlight Foundation)
- support public financing of public elections. (Public Campaign | Just 6 Dollars)
