The Lever: Ron DeSantis’ Crusade Against Campaign Finance Laws

Taken together, the group’s activities amount to “a complete end-run around our campaign finance rules, which are in place to curb corruption and the appearance of corruption,” said Stephen Spaulding, a vice president at the watchdog group Common Cause.

The New Yorker: How a Fringe Legal Theory Became a Threat to Democracy

Flight attendants use euphemistic doublespeak because, understandably, they want to avoid terms like “hijacking” and "September 11th.” For similar reasons, Jones spoke in broad terms, without directly invoking Trump or January 6th. (There were also other reasons for this, such as Common Cause’s nonpartisan status.) Even so, the implications were clear. At one point, an organizer sitting in the audience stood, using a cane, and gave an impromptu speech, urging listeners to imagine a Supreme Court opinion that enabled legislatures to rig...

Texas Tribune/VoteBeat: Harris County elections face state intervention under new laws

Katya Ehresman, voting rights program director with Common Cause Texas, said voters, county officials and election administrators should have been given the opportunity to testify about legislation set to directly impact them.

Ehresman said that process was concerning and “against values of transparency and public input, which should be core parts of the legislative process.”

“These bills do have a tangible effect on voter turnout, voter apathy, and on the ability for elections administrators to do their job...

Tallahassee Democrat (Op-Ed): Florida Legislature and Gov. DeSantis are trampling on our voting rights

If we want a democracy that works for everyone, we should be making it harder for money to influence politics, and easier for eligible Floridians to exercise their freedom to vote. 

But that’s the opposite of what’s happening in Florida, with state lawmakers erecting a slew of unnecessary and confusing barriers for Floridians looking to participate in our democracy.

States Newsroom/Wisconsin Examiner: GOP-led states plan new voter data systems to replace one they rejected. Good luck with that.

“We would have no problem with the state setting up something that followed federal law and somehow getting a bunch of other states to go along with it,” said Julia Vaughn, the executive director of Common Cause Indiana, which brought the lawsuit against the state. “But good luck doing that with one individual state with no real expertise in this, and no reputation as some entity that other states should trust their voter registration lists with.”

The Mercury News: Court upholds California’s anti-pay-to-play law barring votes benefiting campaign contributors

The law was backed by the good governance organization California Common Cause, which described it as “a common sense and long overdue pro-democracy reform” that already exists in other states and in certain California cities.

Striking down the law would go against the “will of the people,” said Jonathan Mehta Stein, executive director of California Common Cause.

“This law protects Californians from the pay-to-play corruption and the appearance of corruption that plagues our cities and counties, and...

Oregon Capital Chronicle (Op-Ed): Oregon legislative proposal would expand voter rolls

If we want Oregon elections to fully reflect the will of the people, then every eligible Oregonian who wants to participate should have easy access to register and vote.

Registering to vote shouldn’t be a chore – for you, me, or anyone else.

Common Cause dépose un mémoire d'amicus curiae pour défendre le redécoupage électoral indépendant dans une affaire anti-gerrymandering à enjeux élevés

Common Cause a déposé un mémoire d'amicus curiae auprès de la Cour suprême de l'État de l'Utah pour protéger la commission de redécoupage des circonscriptions électorales approuvée par les électeurs de 2018 dans l'affaire League of Women Voters of Utah v. Utah State Legislature. Dans le mémoire, le groupe national anti-gerrymandering souligne comment l'État a ignoré la volonté du peuple en adoptant une législation qui impose des cartes électorales impartiales et abandonne les principes clés d'un redécoupage équitable.

Times Union (éditorial) : Pour stimuler la participation électorale, il faut simplifier le texte des bulletins de vote

En 2024, les électeurs seront à nouveau confrontés à une série de propositions de référendum sur des sujets importants. Si nous n'adoptons pas le projet de loi sur le langage clair d'ici là, nous courons le risque que les électeurs soient désorientés et découragés et choisissent de se retirer du processus. Les électeurs de toutes les langues et de tous les niveaux d'alphabétisation méritent un accès égal aux urnes.
