Alliance for Better Campaigns

VOTER WORK

The Alliance is leading the "Our Democracy, Our Airwaves Campaign" to educate activists and the public at large about proposals that would require broadcasters to provide voters with better information about candidates and issues during election time, and would allow candidates who raise small-dollar contributions to earn broadcast ad time. We are mobilizing national and state coalitions to promote these ideas and work towards stronger public interest mandates for broadcasters.

DESCRIPTION

The Alliance for Better Campaigns is a public interest group that seeks to improve elections by promoting campaigns in which the most useful information reaches the greatest number of citizens in the most engaging ways.

We advocate for reforms that reduce the cost and increase the flow of political communication; that open up the political process to more competition; and that facilitate and encourage voter participation. We believe that broadcasters can and must use the publicly-owned airwaves to revitalize our democracy and are working to put meaning back into broadcasters' statutory obligation to serve the public interest.
