Meaningful campaign finance limits. For almost a decade, Illinois has had a patchwork of limits on campaign contributions for state elections. The state limits individual and some PAC and party campaign contributions, but it is not hard to see how these restrictions can be circumvented. We need limits on the number of PACs an individual can control — Madigan has at least two — as well as on the steering of contributions from other elected officials' campaign funds at the party's direction. (It was such contributions from five members of Madigan's House caucus that financed my opponent's last-minute TV ad blitz.)
