“Congress can fix the Super PAC problem”

Adam Skaggs:

There are countless ways the existing system of campaign finance should be reformed, but cleaning up Super PACs is an obvious first step.  Congress should adopt common-sense rules that make terms like independence and coordination mean something.  Super PACs that function as adjunct campaigns should be treated like what they are — and they should be subject to the same contribution limits as candidates.  Putting candidates in charge of their own campaigns is the first step toward putting the public back in charge of democracy.
