New Report Released: ‘Auctioning Democracy: The Rise of Super PACs and the 2012 Election’

Washington, D.C.–(ENEWSPF)–February 8, 2012.  Today U.S. PIRG Education Fund and Demos released a new analysis of the funding sources for the campaign finance behemoths, Super PACs. The findings confirmed what many have predicted in the wake of the Supreme Court’s damaging Citizens United decision: since their inception in 2010, Super PACs have been primarily funded by a small segment of very wealthy individuals and business interests, with a small but significant amount of funds coming from secret sources.
