RepresentUs, founded in 2012, is a legally “nonpartisan” organization focused on reducing what it claims are the negative effects of campaign funding in American politics.1 The organization promotes proposed legislation that aims to increase certain campaign donation restrictions, create a $7.5 billion government subsidy program for political campaigns, and regulate the time of day that members of Congress can fundraise, to name a few.21

“America Needs to Vote at Home” Video During COVID-19

A video titled “America Needs to Vote at Home During COVID-19” was published in March 2020 by RepresentUS. The video discusses the Vote by Mail bill in the senate which would allow American citizens to vote from home. 23

The states Oregon, North Dakota, Utah, Colorado, and Arizona have developed a system that has successfully allowed voters to register and vote with absentee ballots. The video encourages every state to build an electoral system that allows people to register and vote from home with absentee ballots. 1

The celebrities involved with the creative council include a slew of actors, musicians, film directors, and film producers such as Jennifer Lawrence, Kerry Washington, Rachel McAdams, Sia, Jack Black, Elizabeth Banks, Misha Collins, J.J. Abrams, and Kate Walsh. 1

Many of these celebrities have donated large sums of money to Democratic political campaigns. In 2016, Misha Collins donated $2,700 to Hillary Clinton’s campaign and $1,900 to the DNC Services Corp. 0){ let parent=divs[divs.length-1].parentNode; let footer=divs[divs.length-1]; delete divs[divs.length-1]; for (let i=2; i
