President Trump's White House ballroom project is being funded entirely by private donors, many of whom have major business interests before the government, creating serious risks for corruption. The courts must stop construction of the ballroom. campaignlegal.org/update/cha…

The freedom to speak out and express political dissent has always been essential for the LGBTQ community. This First Amendment freedom is also a core part of our democracy that helps us protect all our other rights. At CLC, we’re working to defend this constitutional right.

VICTORY: We successfully defended a D.C. ballot initiative adopting ranked choice voting from a baseless lawsuit. We’re proud to have upheld the will of voters who overwhelmingly passed this measure. Ranked choice voting will be used for the first time in this month's elections!

The Ballroom is just the latest example of this administration granting official benefits — like appointments, contracts and pardons — to wealthy special interests in return for contributions. We’re tracking dozens of these corrupt transactions. 3/ campaignlegal.org/exposing-p…
