American Campaign Finance Reform

American Campaign Finance Reform involves efforts to improve the transparency, fairness, and integrity of money in political campaigns. It aims to limit the influence of wealthy donors and special interest groups by establishing rules on donations, funding sources, and spending. Key initiatives include regulations like the Federal Election Campaign Act, the Bipartisan Campaign Reform Act, and Supreme Court decisions affecting political spending. The goal is to ensure that elections are fair, reduce corruption risks, and give voters confidence that candidates are not unduly influenced by large financial contributors.
