Congressman Crow Works to Fight Corruption in Government
AURORA — Congressman Jason Crow (D-CO-06) held a roundtable with Colorado constituents, along with End Citizens United, to discuss his efforts in Congress to fight corruption, enact meaningful campaign finance reform, get dark money out of politics and fight special interests.
This constituent roundtable in Aurora follows shocking instances of corruption in the Trump Administration, including the President accepting a $400 million jet from a foreign government, the Trump family opening a private club for the wealthy to pay for direct access to government officials, and a high-dollar dinner hosted by Trump for the largest investors in his crypto meme coin that he has personally benefited from.
“Ever since I came to Washington, I’ve fought to end corruption, take on special interests, and get dark money out of politics. Our system should represent all Americans, not just the elite few. That’s why I call out corruption when I see it and will continue to fight for common sense reforms,” said Congressman Crow.
Participants included former U.S. Senator Jon Tester (D-MT); Tiffany Muller, President of End Citizens United; and Aly Belknap, Executive Director of Colorado Common Cause.
Congressman Crow has long led the fight to root out corruption, including introducing the End Dark Money Act. This legislation would go a long way in fighting corruption and cracking down on dark money influencing U.S. elections. He also recently introduced the Shell Company Abuse Act, a bipartisan bill to limit foreign interference in U.S. Elections. Additionally, he previously served as the co-chair of the End Corruption Caucus, and has introduced other legislation, including the SHINE Act and DISCLOSE Act to end the influence of special interests in our elections. He also supports the TRUST in Congress Act to ban members of Congress and their families from owning or trading stocks.
