Clean Money is Back

Last week, Clean Money champion Assemblywoman Loni Hancock reintroduced AB 583, which establishes a full public funding system for all state legislative and statewide election campaigns. At the same time, Sen. Joe Simitian introduced SB 536, an exciting bill to establish a Clean Money pilot program for the office of Insurance Commissioner.

The above is from an email I received today from the California Clean Money Campaign. Good stuff, eh? I think so. I actively supported the CCMC and Loni Hancock's legislation before the CNA got their proposition on last November's ballot, and really prefer it over Prop 89.

I'm pleased.

If you don't know how Clean Money works, go to the CCMC faq page. It give a great overview of clean money, public financing for elections.
