What's this all about?
The New York City Campaign Finance Board is headed down the wrong path in their effort to shine a light on big money's influence in politics. Rather than accomplish its intended goal of exposing "swift boat-style" campaigning and million dollar ballot security efforts, the CFB's proposed new rules will instead decimate non-profit, grassroots and member-to-member legislative advocacy programs that have successfully rescued childcare funding for thousands of working families, stopped critical senior centers and firehouses from closing, and protected weekend library service at branches across the city.
Advocacy is one of our most effective tools to achieve our goals. It's critical for nonprofits like ours to take part in the democratic process. This is not only our legal right - it is our responsibility to the individuals and communities we serve and represent. Moving forward with these regulations threatens our ability to communicate with the public about legislative issues and participate effectively in policy debates. That is surely not the result City residents intended when they voted for the Charter amendment.
