What if the laws that allow billions of dollars of dark money to drive American politics are based on...a mistake? One of America’s
most prominent legal scholars thinks that’s exactly what’s happened, and he’s going to give someone $50,000 to help him prove it.
Lawrence Lessig is the Roy L. Furman Professor of Law and Leadership at Harvard Law School and the founder of Equal Citizens, an advocacy
group whose mission is to fix democracy by establishing truly equal citizenship. On Labor Day, September 4, 2023, Equal Citizens will launch a video competition with (at least one) $50,000 prize for whoever can help clearly and concisely explain the legal argument for why SuperPACs can be regulated.
