For far too long, the voices of Maine voters have been drowned out by foreign government interference and dark money special interest groups.
LD 1610 "An Act To Prohibit Campaign Spending by Foreign Governments and Promote an Anticorruption Amendment to the United States Constitution," will ban foreign governments from spending money in Maine referendum elections (unbelievably, this is currently allowed!).
In addition, the initiative affirms Maine’s support for an anti-corruption amendment to the U.S. Constitution and charges the Maine Ethics Commission to report on the progress made by Maine’s delegation in Congress to advance this amendment. Such an amendment would allow for reasonable limits on money in our elections.
With LD 1610, we have the opportunity to stop corruption, protect the integrity of our elections, and to restore confidence in our democracy. Join us in encouraging the Legislature to pass this initiative.
