Our Summary:
Our team at ProjectLeapfrog.org, a pioneering think tank fostering systemic change, is working hard to Get Big Money Out of New York, Overturn Citizens United, and Save Democracy. Even a small amount supports a LOCAL PAID legislative liaison to get big money out.

Our Story:
Right now in New York, our local elections are being drowned out by dark money donors and special interest groups.

We are launching this grassroots campaign to fight back with local paid legislative liaisons in YOUR STATE to pass constitutional amendments.

Our founding fathers gave us a second way to amend the Constitution so let’s have a Limited Non-partisan Convention of States.

Our Mission:
Imagine getting big money out of politics. Imagine a democracy truly by the people where your voice, not dark money from corporations and PACs, shapes our laws.
ProjectLeapfrog.org is committed to OVERTURN CITIZENS UNITED by:
1. Allowing People Only: By taking non-people (corporations and PACs) out of the Constitution's definition of "we the people."
2. Allowing Campaign Finance Limits: Empowering our democracy to set reasonable limits on political spending, ensuring fairer elections.

Our Path:
We're spreading our Legislative Liaison pilot program to YOUR STATE! We recruit passionate young people in state capitals, provide them with expert training, and deploy them to their State Legislatures. These paid liaisons serve as vital connectors, engaging directly with state legislators and local officials to:
1. Educate them on the need for constitutional reform via a limited convention.
2. Garner support for our two specific, crucial amendments.

Our Goal Per State:
$28,000 (80% liaisons, 15% operations, 5% overhead)
