Not dead yet - drive for federal campaign finance reform - Editorial

Progressive, The, April, 1997

Pollina and his allies hope the movement will spread from the state level to the federal government, as public pressure grows irresistible, and campaign-finance becomes an unavoidable issue in Congressional races. To help push the issue at the federal level, Senator Paul Wellstone, Democrat of Minnesota, is planning to introduce a bill based on the clean-money model later this session.

These are encouraging signs, far more interesting than the usual inside-the-Beltway cynicism.
