Fair Elections for New York is an organization whose goal is to take big money out of New York politics while increasing the say individual citizens have in government.  The organization is focused on four key goals:

  1. Public Financing of Elections – establishing a voluntary system to empower small donors by matching their contributions with public money, similar to NYC’s successful system.

  2. Lower Contribution Limits – bringing New York State’s sky-high contribution limits down to reasonable levels.

  3. Ending Pay-to-Play – saving public dollars by preventing contributions and bundling by contractors and lobbyists from influencing decisions about state business.

  4. Stronger Enforcement and Transparency – ensuring that our laws are enforced in a fair, effective and timely manner, and that public matching funds are appropriately disbursed.
