Overview
Issue One is a national nonpartisan organization seeking to reduce the influence of money in politics by building a reform coalition — now comprised of more than 175 former members of Congress from across the political spectrum — to promote policy solutions. To further support this goal, Issue One is investing in the most promising state and local efforts to address money in politics, and advancing pro-democracy jurisprudence reform. Given the growing demand for accurate, credible information on government ethics and accountability, Issue One is also increasingly contributing to this dialogue from their unique bipartisan perspective.
