Liberal Groups Fighting 'Big Money' Got $32 Million from Soros | CNS News

Liberal Groups Fighting 'Big Money' Got $32 Million from Soros | CNS News

Between 30 and 35 lefty and environmental groups have joined forces to combat the NRA, the American Legislative Exchange Council and other conservative groups, and they expect their number to grow to 50 by the end of winter. As if that wasn't bad enough, members of this coalition have received more than $32 million in Soros funding.
The effort, dubbed the "Democracy Initiative," is being led by the Sierra Club, Greenpeace, the Communication Workers of America, and the NAACP.
According to a Mother Jones article on the meeting, "[A]t the end of the day, many of the attendees closed with a pledge of money and staff resources to build a national, coordinated campaign."
This campaign centers around three key issues: fighting voter ID laws, changing the Senate rules to prevent filibusters -and getting "big money" out of politics.
