Financing of Elections and Lobbying: the Role of PACs in the 1992 Elections
View through CrossRef
Les tentatives de réforme du financement des campagnes électorales, longtemps dans l'impasse, ont finalement abouti à l'adoption de cinq lois importantes dans les années 1970 mais une nouvelle réforme s'impose due aux conséquences non souhaitées et non souhaitables de la législation telle qu'elle a été modifiée par un arrêt de la Cour Suprême, en particulier la prolifération des PACs. Les chiffres montrent une dépendance accrue des Représentants et des Sénateurs (vis-à-vis de ces contributions) souvent accusés de se laisser acheter par les lobbies. Le délicat équilibre entre 1er amendement (garantir la liberté de parole) et le 5e amendement (égaliser l'accès à l'arène politique) n'est pas encore atteint.
