Tell Your Candidates to Reform the Electoral Act

The Electoral Act was intended to stop foreign money impacting on Irish elections. But because it's so badly written, it can also be used against voluntary or small organisations who are campaigning for progressive social change.

Many people running voluntary organisations are so afraid they'll be prosecuted under the Act that they refuse to accept donations of more than €100. That has a serious impact on what they can achieve.

Will you ask your local candidates to support the Electoral Amendment (Civil Society Freedom) Bill 2019?
