ADVOCACY
Checks & Balances
We believe that government by the people and for the people is the foundation of a just and productive government. A healthy, functioning democracy ensures that our elections are free, fair and secure, and that representation is equitable. Our country functions best when our electoral and political systems provide fair and meaningful representation to all. Our government and elected officials should also operate with accountability and transparency.
​
In this area of advocacy, we are focusing on:
-
Safeguarding institutional structures and democratic norms
-
Fair, nonpartisan redistricting
-
Ethics and accountability in government, including campaign finance and the rule of law
