Lets voters give $100 vouchers to federal candidates, changing how elections are funded.
This bill would create a new system where every eligible U.S. citizen and national could get $100 in "democracy dollars" to give to federal candidates. It would change how federal elections are paid for, giving everyday people more say in campaign funding. New rules would also be set for candidates who accept these funds. The current public financing system for presidential elections would end.
Today, federal elections are mostly paid for by private donations, with a small public fund for presidential races that taxpayers can choose to support. If this bill passes, eligible voters would get $100 vouchers for House, Senate, and Presidential elections to give to candidates. The current presidential public fund would end. Candidates who accept the vouchers would face new limits on private donations (decreasing to $200) and personal spending ($2,500).
