The People’s Pledge is an agreement between the candidates in any election asking supporters not to spend outside money via super PACs and other non-party groups in their race. If outside groups spend despite the Pledge, the candidates pay a penalty from their own campaign funds.
The People’s Pledge helps candidates prove they are committed to limiting spending in elections by actions, not just words. It allows them to act before they are even elected.
Elizabeth Warren, along with Scott Brown, were the first candidates to take the People’s Pledge, effectively reducing outside, non-party spending in the 2012 U.S. Senate race in Massachusetts by 93 percent.
