The History of Finance in American Political Campaigns

submitted by Marvin's Underground Evening Lectures on 10/11/18 1

Money has been an integral part of American politics since the beginning of our nation, but today’s full-time campaign staffs and Super PACs are far from what the Founding Fathers saw in their day. Congress has attempted to reform campaign finance, yet more dollars are making their way into our political process than ever before. A bipartisan group of former Members of Congress, along with other issue experts, will discuss the evolution of campaign finance and share their personal experiences running for public office and raising money. The panel also will discuss the First Amendment Right to free speech and how, in light of these issues, it has been recently interpreted.
