Biden supports making the source of funds for campaigns in the United States transparent

Must Read

WASHINGTON, Sept. 20 (Princea Latina) Today the President of the United States, Joe Biden, asked Congress to pass a bill that seeks to clarify the source of funds donated to the country’s political campaigns.

The president estimated that a capital of questionable origin, as well as an erosion of public trust, is a problem among Republicans as well as among Democrats.

There is a lot of money flowing in the shadows to influence our elections. It’s called dark money. He said in a speech from the Roosevelt Room of the White House.

The governor hinted at $1.6 billion from a single donor to a group led by the Conservative Federal Assembly co-chair, who in turn advised former President Donald Trump (2017-2021) on his election to the Supreme Court.

The said individual contribution constitutes the largest contribution ever given to a politically focused nonprofit organization, as disclosed in a timely manner by CNN News.

Biden’s words came just a day after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced in that state House plenary a procedural vote tomorrow on the so-called disclosure law, with strong opposition from the Republican side. .

He revealed that the legislation “would require Super PACs and other donor groups to report anyone who contributes $10,000 or more during an election.”

It would also require associations that spend money on judicial candidates to disclose the names of their donors.

So far, the bill does not have the 60 votes needed to remove a procedural hurdle, but Schumer insisted that they would continue to vote to register GOP members.

The law passed narrowly in the House of Representatives once in 2010 but failed twice in the Senate in 2012, with the conservative opposition led by Senator Mitch McConnell.
