Jason Snead, Executive Director of Honest Elections Project Action, released the following statement:
“Honest Elections Project Action applauds the Kentucky House for passing legislation to ban foreign funding in state ballot issue campaigns. The Kentucky legislature is ready to close the foreign funding loophole, allowing foreign nationals, like Swiss billionaire Hansjorg Wyss, to funnel money into their elections. We urge the Kentucky Senate to follow suit to secure elections and protect the will of the people of Kentucky from foreign influence.”
