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

Host Organization: BA National
Setting: Online

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.

Curious to discuss more? Agree or disagree? Have your own ideas?

Join our two speakers, one red and one blue, in a fascinating conversation that will include plenty of time for Q & A and Discussion. During Q and A and Discussion, anyone who wants to ask a question or make a comment may do so.

Bill Fry is a Tea Party leader and small businessman from Blanchester, Ohio. The architect of the “No Ballot, No Buck” proposal, Bill is a conservative who voted for Donald Trump.

Rob Weidenfeld is a Democratic activist and retired teacher from Loveland, Ohio. A supporter of No Ballot, No Buck, Rob is a liberal Democrat who voted for Joe Biden.

** This event is open to the media upon approval. Media contact: Ciaran O’Connor, ciaran@braverangels.org
