Question 1: An Act to Limit Contributions to Political Action Committees That Make Independent Expenditures
The Cumberland County Greens firmly believe in the power of grassroots campaigns and the importance of limiting the influence of big money in politics. By voting YES on Question One, Mainers will take a significant step towards a more fair and transparent democracy by placing limits on the amount of money that can be donated to Political Action Committees (PACs) that spend money independently to support or defeat candidates for office. This $5,000 limit will help to level the playing field and ensure that all voices are heard, not just those with the deepest pockets. The committee supports this measure as part of our broader fight for campaign finance reform and encourages all Mainers to join us in voting YES on Question One.
