Jason Snead, Executive Director of Honest Elections Project Action, released the following statement:
“Foreign nationals should never be able to influence American elections, and Arkansas lawmakers are taking bold action to ensure they never again can. For years, left-wing Swiss billionaire Hansjörg Wyss has done exactly that, funneling millions of dollars through a left-wing group that has influenced ballot measure elections all across America. The Arkansas legislature is right to make contributions from foreigners, direct and indirect, illegal. Honest Elections Project Action urges Governor Huckabee-Sanders to finish the job by signing this legislation to protect Arkansas’ ballot issues from foreign influence once and for all.”
