As a coalition partner with WV Citizens for Clean Elections, the West Virginia Council of Churches is sponsoring a petition drive to demonstrate that the citizens of our state want to change the way our Delegates and Senators are elected. We want a more diverse field of qualified candidates to have a fair shot at being elected - without being beholden to special interest donations. Public campaign financing is working in Maine, Arizona, North Carolina, and other states, and better public policies that work for all the voters is a result!

If you are a citizen of West Virginia, you can be involved by signing a petition and telling your friends about this campaign. If you are not a citizen of West Virginia, please tell all your friends and relatives about this campaign and urge them to sign the petition. The WV coalition plans to collect as many signatures as possible to present to Legislative leaders as we push for passage of the Public Campaign Financing Act during the 2009 legislative session!
