Politifund
Crowdfunded Lobbying for the People
Our Vision
people-powered politics
Justice can't be bought.
Big corporations are running America. With hundreds of millions of dollars poured into private lobbying efforts, we are effectively shut out from the political process. Let's challenge greedy interests through our collective power.
A revolution in political expression.
By crowdfunding politics, millions of American citizens receive a new channel of democratic participation. Anyone can now influence legislature just by contributing to open campaigns funded by the interests of the people.
