Jason Wallace Illinois Green Party Candidate US Congress

admin — Sat, 15 Aug 2009 18:12:38 +0000

Jason is running for the U.S. House of Representatives in the 11th District of Illinois.

Are you dissatisfied with the government? Do you want change? Do you want to improve the situation? Together we can and will fix the country we love. By voting for Jason, we can take the steps necessary to improve the country we all love.

10K08 – is Jason’s voluntary ten thousand dollar spending cap for the general election in November. We want to return our American elections to the grassroots level and move away from the corrupting influence of corporations, special interest, and wealthy private donors. Given the state of the economy, we should be more concerned with addressing the issues of our people than with how much money we can waste on political donations to buy our representatives in Congress instead of electing them. While other campaigns are raising hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars in special interest money we want to let you put your two cents in as a real voter instead of cutting back-room deals with the political machine.

Jason Wallace needs your help in the fight to bring justice back to our country. Your help is essential and a donation to this non-corporate, grassroots campaign will ensure a true Representative of the people will be elected to Congress!
