Democracy 21

Democracy 21 is a non-profit organization in the United States that works to combat the influence of private money in politics by enacting campaign finance reform.[1] It was founded in 1997 by longtime activist Fred Wertheimer. The organization supports stricter campaign finance limits and regulations and opposes the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Citizens United v. FEC.[2]
