John McCain is breaking campaign finance law.
When his campaign was in trouble, he opted for public financing through the primary, limiting him to a $54 million spending cap. But now that he is the presumptive nominee, he's spending like crazy.
According to McCain's latest spending report, he has spent in excess of $58 million so far.
Earlier this week we filed a formal complaint to Federal Election Commission. Now we're getting ready for a larger second delivery early next week. For this delivery, we've set the aggressive goal of 30,000 signatures.
Please read and co-sign the letter to the FEC right now.
http://action.firedoglake.com/mccainfecOur efforts are already starting to get some traction. We've gathered over 22,000 signatures, and CNN picked up the story on Wednesday detailing how McCain is going outside the law.
Check out the CNN coverage of our efforts and add your name to theirs right now.
http://action.firedoglake.com/mccainfecIf you sign right now, we'll make sure that your name is included with our larger delivery next week.
Sincerely,
Jane and Markos
