“Democracy 21/ACS Issue Brief: A New Federal Agency is Needed to Enforce Campaign Finance Laws”

Press release: “As the U.S. Supreme Court readies to hear another case that could result in further undermining of the campaign finance laws, a new American Constitution Society Issue Brief written by Democracy 21 President Fred Wertheimer and its Counsel Don Simon argue that the federal agency tasked with enforcing campaign finance laws is woefully inept and in need of fundamental changes to enforce any of the laws. In the Issue Brief, “The FEC: The Failure to Enforce Commission,” Wertheimer and Simon explain how the Federal Election Commission has thwarted campaign finance regulations and now consistently stymies efforts to enforce campaign finance regulations laws intended to provide transparency of how our campaigns are financed and curb corruption of elections and government decisions.”
