Corporate-free Candidate Town Hall Overcoming corporate control over elections

Saturday, February 24, 11:30am Joyce Beers Community Center 3900 Vermont St., San Diego 92103

What do Gayle McLaughlin, Monica Montgomery, and Josh Jones have in common? They are rejecting corporate contributions in their campaigns for office, AND they will be joining our Town-hall panel! Join the conversation and learn: 1) From Corporate-Free candidates for a wide array of offices (state-wide to city council) and parties (Greens, Democrats, "independents") who describe why they are running Corporate-Free campaigns and what they have learned. 2) How corporate dominance has crippled progressive change in our economy, environment, health care, education, housing, transportation, and criminal justice system. 3) From Gayle McLaughlin, founder of the Richmond Progressive Alliance (RPA) and candidate for Lt. Governor, on how the Corporate-Free Elections strategy has been wildly successful in not only winning elections but also in making huge progressive political change AFTER winning (e.g., implementing rent control, $15 minimum wage, effective police review, solar energy jobs, stronger emissions standards, taking back the City of Richmond CA from Chevron's control, etc.)
