We the People’s Forum: A Citizen’s Proposal for Getting Money Out of Politics (BA National)
06/07/2021 @ 8:00 pm - 9:30 pm EDT
How can we reduce the influence of money in politics?
“No Ballot, No Buck” is a policy proposal by Bill Fry, a Tea Party leader and small businessman from Blanchester, Ohio, that aims to do exactly that.
The idea, proposed as a constitutional amendment, is simple but radical: if you can’t vote for a candidate, you can’t give money to that candidate.
