The Strategy to End Corruption

Politicians are supposed to represent us. But most Americans have a near-zero impact on public policy.

We have a plan to go around Congress to fix corruption ourselves, and it’s already winning.

JOIN THE FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION:

We pass laws to change the rules

We need to make politicians work for us, not just the wealthy and well-connected

KEY REFORMS

We’ve worked with the best legal, political, and policy experts from across the political spectrum to identify a list of key reforms that will make the biggest difference.

Crack down on corruption by strengthening campaign finance, ethics, and lobbying laws.
Make elections more representative by enacting Ranked Choice Voting and Top 4/5 Primaries.
End partisan gerrymandering to ensure voters choose their politicians, instead of the other way around.

We win at the local and state level

We’re going around Congress and following a proven strategy

FIX THE SYSTEM CITY BY CITY,
STATE BY STATE

States control their own elections — even federal ones. That means that when we change state laws, we can impact national elections. And when election laws give voters more power, election results actually represent the people.

LABORATORIES OF DEMOCRACY

History shows us that successful movements begin at the local level. It’s how we got women’s suffrage, interracial marriage, marriage equality, and more. By demonstrating the power and potential of these reforms in cities and states, we show Americans everywhere that change is possible. That’s how we build momentum for federal change.

WE PUT COUNTRY OVER PARTY

Fixing a corrupt & broken political system requires all of us working together

UNITED WE STAND, DIVIDED WE FALL

We may not agree on everything, but we know that our current political system is very, very broken. And we are united by the founding ideals of our nation: That democracy and freedom must be defended. That the government belongs to us.

That’s why the vast majority of Republicans, Democrats, and Independents support our policies.

POLITICIANS VS PEOPLE

Republicans, Democrats, and Independents each make up roughly a third of the US. We can’t win unless we work together. But politicians stoke partisan divides, hoping that we’ll be too busy blaming each other to notice that the political establishment is screwing all of us.

This isn’t about red vs blue. This is about politicians vs we the people.

OUR STRATEGY IS WORKING -
ALL WE DO IS WIN

RepresentUs volunteers and donors have fueled 184 wins since our founding a decade ago. We’re seeding and supporting dozens more impactful campaigns right now, with the goal of making America the world’s strongest democracy by 2050.

We set big, bold goals, because we know we can win, and we know Americans deserve better. But it’s going to take all of us fighting for our democracy and for our nation to get there.

184 WINS!
