Today the House voted.
See this post-vote statement from CLC
and this
pre-vote statement from CCP.
What happens next? Nothing. The bill will not get a vote in the
Senate or the President's signature. Nor will a bill aimed at
fixing the broken
system be passed. No serious candidate for President will
accept public financing in 2012.
See this
post at the New York Public Personnel blog.
A great
lineup at this USF symposium on Feb. 25 in San Francisco,
including a keynote by Jim Bopp. I had wanted to speak at this
event but had a conflict---I hope there's a webcast!
