Urgent need for campaign finance reform
"The Wall Street Journal reported that Elon Musk planned to donate $45 million a month to a pro-Trump super PAC" This is just flat-out buying an election. It is ridiculously corrupt. Our political system is awash in "dark money".
The U.S. urgently needs major campaign finance reform laws to put a stop to this kind of corruption. The Biden administration made a good start with the DISCLOSE Act, which requires donors of over $10,000 to identify themselves. But much more needs to be done. I hope a new Harris administration will send legislation to congress mandating campaign finance reform laws.
