Billionaires are already spending big on 2026 election campaigns. Most of this money flows through PACs and goes to Republicans. The DNC and state Democrats should ban PAC money from their primaries because it distorts election results, perverts policies, and drowns out working people’s voices.

Democrats should be taking steps now to lay the ground work for electoral successes and policy making in the future. Running against Trump is not enough; Democrats need to state what they are for. They should ban super PAC and dark money from their primaries and support progressive policies.

Big money is corrupting our elections and elected officials. There are ways to blunt its impact that can be taken now by Democratic Party officials and by state and municipal governments. Contact them and encourage them to act now to blunt the impact of big money in our political system.
