Has anyone heard of this movement? Represent.US?

STEP 1
The American Anti-Corruption Act (http://anticorruptionact.org/) sets a standard for local, state and federal laws that:
Stop the bribery

The Act prevents lobbyists from donating to politicians and/or offering them any deals that could influence policymaking.
End secret money

The Act mandates full transparency: disclosure of all political money and “bundlers” who gather contributions for politicians.
Empower the voters

The Act imposes strict limits on PACs, and gives voters an annual $100 tax rebate to be spent supporting the candidate or party of their choice

Step 2
It’s not about right vs. left. It’s about right vs. wrong.

Real political power comes from real people. Millions of us — conservatives, progressives and everyone in between, united, organized, and taking action locally.





Step 3: Act locally. End corruption nationally.

Pass laws in towns, cities and states that meet the standards of the American Anti-Corruption Act, building momentum from the bottom up.

Represent.Us Chapters are forming all across the country in a nationally coordinated effort to end corruption at the local level.



They claim the best way to fix America is to pass anti-corruption act laws across state municipalities much like gay marriage and marijuana legalization.

The difference with this is that corruption is a bi-partisan issue, unlike marijuana legalization and gay marriage.
