Lessig's proposal, per https://lessigforpresident.com/the-act/ https://lessigforpresident.com/the-act/:
1. Make election day a national holiday
2. Implement ranked-choice voting[1], and draw districts for equal
representation[2]
3. Give voters campaign donation vouchers and limit lobbying, described as a
hybrid between the Government By the People Act[3] and the American
Anti-Corruption Act[4]

- getrdone 11y agoLarry puts forth a number of very wise points. I think we need to go further by eliminating PACSs altogether and that limited donations may come from named individuals and must go to a specific candidate only; neither organizations, issue PACs, super PACs nor "personhood" corporations.
