minus-square@yeahiknow3link0•edit-24 hours agoThe bill seeks to make it harder for billionaires to buy elections. It caps individual donations to $20,000/year It forces real time disclosures of donations of $1000 or more. It limits campaign spending to $800k/seat and $90 million/party. It is a fantastic bill that makes it harder for the rich to steal elections. That’s why this literal coal baron (Australia’s Trump) hates the bill: Yeah, right. Regular Australians harmed by an $800k spending limit. Ridiculous.
