Most Non-Profits Inform Members about Board Candidates themselves
— But Not Pacifica!
Get Money Out of Pacifica Politics & Elections!
Pacifica, unlike other membership organization, and despite its unique communicative capacity over the airwaves, does not inform members adequately about candidates for its boards as part of its own communication with members. Instead it requires candidates or slates to pay substantial fees to third-party mailing houses to communicate with members. It will cost about $14,000 to send a postcard to all members. Help us level the playing field so that deep-pocket backers can’t determine the outcome of the elections.
If you don’t want “Citizens United” style elections at Pacifica, please donate at https://www.crowdfunder.com/p/pmc-election-fund
and help us educate the membership — get out the vote of your colleagues and friends for PFB candidates, and help us get money out of Pacifica politics so we can have fair, free and effective elections.
