“State Sen. Daniel Biss (D-Evanston) has introduced legislation that would dramatically reduce caps on individual contributions to political campaigns while providing state matching funds for small contributions.
Senate Bill 1424, dubbed the “Small Donor Democracy Matching System for Fair Elections Act,” would reduce the ceiling on contributions from an individual to a single campaign from $5,600 to $500.
The legislation would establish a small donor matching system for statewide races in Illinois, including governor, attorney general, comptroller, treasurer, secretary of state, as well as for contests for state senators and state representatives.”
