About

We bring together conservatives, progressives, and everyone in between to pass powerful anti-corruption laws that stop political bribery, end secret money, and fix our broken elections.

How We Win

A powerful movement of independents, progressives, and conservatives is building on America’s long tradition of pursuing federal reform through the states.

In 2018, twenty-three transformative anti-corruption laws, from anti-gerrymandering and ranked choice voting to sweeping ethics and transparency laws, were passed in cities and states—more than in any other year in our nation’s history.
