Congress: Close the Loophole Letting Big Money into Our Elections!
Following the U.S. Supreme Court's decision in Citizens United, we've seen the creation and explosive growth of Super PACs. Super PACs undermine the integrity of our campaign finance laws by allowing donors and candidates to bypass contribution limits and raise and spend unlimited amounts.
Congress can fix this. Tell your Representative to close the loophole that is letting big money into our elections and ask him or her to support the "Stop Super PAC -- Candidate Coordination Act."
Super PACs are sidestepping the law that is intended to block huge and corrupting campaign contributions. It's time to close this loophole by strengthening the rules that prohibit coordination between candidates and outside spending groups. New and effective coordination rules would bring Super PACs back into the contribution limit system and help protect against corruption of public officials.
Help stop big money by telling your Representative to strengthen coordination rules and support the "Stop Super PAC -- Candidate Coordination Act" TODAY!
Dear Representative:
I strongly urge you to support H.R. 425, the "Stop Super PAC—Candidate Coordination Act." This legislation will stop Super PACs from circumventing candidate contribution limits by strengthening the rules prohibiting coordination between candidates and outside spending groups.

The explosive growth of Super PACs is undermining the integrity and effectiveness of our nation's anti-corruption campaign finance laws. The ability of Super PACs to raise and spend unlimited contributions allows donors and candidates to bypass and evade the contribution limits that apply to a candidate's campaign. These limits are necessary to prevent corruption.
New coordination rules would bring Super PACs back into the contribution limit system and help protect against corruption of public officials. We ask that you work to establish real-world, common-sense definitions of coordination in order to close this massive loophole.
Please support H.R. 425, the "Stop Super PAC -- Candidate Coordination Act."
Sincerely,
[Your name]
