Announcement via email:
Join Commissioner Ellen L. Weintraub of the Federal Election Commission as she brings together some of the nation’s top scholars, public-interest professionals, and attorneys to discuss some of the hottest issues in campaign finance surrounding corporate political spending and foreign influence.
When Citizens United opened the door in 2010 to unlimited corporate political spending, it failed to address how to keep foreign funds from flowing through corporations into our elections. The American people deserve assurances that corporations, whether large or small, are not using foreigners’ money to influence our elections. And the law demands it. But how big is the problem? And what’s the best way to solve it?
When: Thursday, June 23, 10 a.m.-3:30 p.m. (doors open 9:30 a.m.). A light lunch will be provided.
Where: Federal Election Commission, 999 E St. NW, 9th floor, Washington, DC 20463
