RepresentUs bring together conservatives, progressives, and everyone in between to pass powerful state and local laws that fix our broken elections and stop political bribery. Our strategy is central to dismantling the root causes of inequities in our Senate, Congress, and beyond. We fight for democracy reform to end political corruption, extremism, and gridlock.

We’ve passed over 124 anti-corruption laws, from anti-gerrymandering and ranked-choice voting to sweeping ethics and transparency laws.

In this RepresentUs video titled "How Lobbyists and Loopholes Corrupt Our Government," we explain how the Citizens United decisions opened the flood gates of money in politics and how corporate lobbyists exert political money influence to control our democracy. This video explains what is lobbying and how to fix democracy by eliminating corporate influence if we get money out of politics. From stopping money in democracy to stopping unfair elections, RepresentUs is fighting to give power back to the people.
