What does Pennsylvania’s richest man have to do with you?
Jeff Yass, Pennsylvania’s richest man and one of the 100 richest people in the world, has spent years trying to rig the rules of Pennsylvania’s democracy by funding politicians who will do his bidding.
Yass wields his $45B in wealth to drown out the voices of everyday Pennsylvanians, undermining the fundamental principle of our democracy: one person, one vote.
One out of every three state legislators in Pennsylvania has received funding from Yass’s PACs since 2017.* Those legislators hold the power to pass policies that determine whether we can make living wages, afford housing where we want to live, or have access to fully funded, local public schools for our children.
How do we ensure politicians answer to the people—not billionaires like Yass?
Every individual should have an equal voice in government. We believe our elected officials must be accountable to working Pennsylvanians, not billionaires like Yass. That’s why we are committed to:
1) exposing Yass’s outsized influence on our democracy;
2) mobilizing the public to demand their elected officials reject Yass’s money and his billionaire agenda; and
3) restoring a democracy where politicians answer to the people—not billionaires.
