Infographic: What’s the Cost of Getting Into Congress?
GOOD is partnering with Lawrence Lessig and Rootstrikers to shine a light on the corrupt relationship between political fundraising and lobbyist power in this country. Through a series of infographics and articles titled Capital in the Capitol, we’ll be evaluating the campaign finance system, PACs, and how money influences certain political results in this country—which, in turn, affects all of us.
Take a look at our first infographic, which shares some surprising facts about how much it costs to run for office and where political representatives get that money.
