In addition to private contributions, they want tax money too. Additional lovey money.
Hang on. What about the dollar matching. You can't have both. Also, private financing is free to supply lovely money at all other times.
"Crack down" is not defined. Foreign donations to foundations like the Clinton's are unlikely to be affected.
But they will still exist to funnel all that lovely money.
"Light" lovely money will still be accepted.
But corporate PACs will still be able to give the DNC lovey money.
The DNC is not trying to reduce the money they are receiving.
Captain, the goalpost is running away!
Small Dollar donations mean individuals, like when a granny gives $15 to Bernie Sanders. Since that explicitly says matching with public financing that means said matching would have an upper limit allotted to every candidate.
It says businesses and corporations won't be allowed to donate to campaigns or collaborate with campaigns. That leaves a loophole where they can still endorse a candidate publicly, but taking that away would be a violation of freedom of speech.
PACs will still exist in the sense that political advocates and lobbies exist, but they would be severely gutted by not being able to fund campaigns, which is their sole purpose since the Citizens United decision was first handed down.
