And thank you to everyone who expressed in this uniquely authentic way that they believe it’s possible to reclaim a democracy,\ wrote founder Lawrence Lessig, a Harvard professor and longtime critic of the way political campaigns are funded in the US. Lessig started the super PAC, or political action committee, in order to elect candidates who support campaign finance reform. Super PACs are allowed to raise unlimited amounts of money to spend on advertising and other forms of support, but may not contribute directly to parties or candidates.
