Are you aware that H.R. 1 (For the People Act) is designed to crush third parties?

Yes, unfortunately.

H.R. 1, the "For the People Act" is absolutely designed to kill independent parties under the guise of "campaign finance reform" - just like Cuomo did in NY. It should be renamed the "For the Powerful Act".

Please run third party. Please. I’m begging. Please please please.
Changes the fundraising minimum for federal matching funds from 5k to 25k. It's not a good bill

Yawn. This is just for *primary elections*. What 3rd party even has primaries? None have reached the 5% threshold required for general election funds in a generation. Mostly 3rd parties just don't work in a first-past-the-post system. Whether you or I like it or not.
