Derek Kilmer: “I think it is really important to keep foreign money out of our elections.”

I strongly believe that this is a key ideal we should be striving for in how we craft rules packages.

My hope is, regardless of which party holds the gavels, that that Subcommittee continues, because the work of institutional improvement needs to continue.

First, it can help us promote bipartisanship and civility, which I believe is desperately needed in our polarized politics.

My gratitude to Chairwoman Bice and to you, Mr. Chairman, and to Ranking Member Morelle, is that you are loving critics of the institution, and that matters.
