Campaign Finance Limits…Center for Competitive Politics

This presentation addresses one of the contributing factors to Why I am no longer the Primary Sponsor of the Campaign Finance Limits Proposal in the Utah State House of Representatives. The Campaign Finance Limits bill was originally part of a “suite” of ethics bills rapidly moving through the Utah Legislature this year. Because of its growing unpopularity, primarily based on “Free Speech” and questionable “corruption” concerns, this bill has been detached from the other ethics bills for individual scrutiny.

Thank you Craig for this insightful video. Thanks for being principle based. The study you cited was really interesting and it really changed the way I view campaign contributions. Hopefully others on capital hill listen to you and are honestly open to discuss this matter.
