Common Cause Rhode Island is a proud member of the coalition, Rhode Islanders for Fair Elections. The group supports a voluntary program of publicly funded campaigns. This issue is at the heart of the Common Cause mission of taking the special interest money out of the political process.
The coalition will hold a press conference in the Rotunda of the State House on Tuesday, February 3rd at 3:30 p.m, announcing the introduction of our legislation for the 2009 session.
Speakers include:
- Senator Rhoda Perry, Senate sponsor
- Representative Edith Ajello, House sponsor
- Nancy Davis, publicly funded state representative from Maine
- Sheila Dormady, Director of Clean Water Action
- Rev. Dr. Don Anderson, Executive Minister of RI State Council of Churches
- Phoebe Neels a Democracy Matters Student Representative
Please show your support for separating money from politics in Rhode Island by attending the press conference or contacting Common Cause to get involved in the coalition.
