The Equal Citizens Project

Welcome to the Equal Citizens Project (ECP) discussion group. The ECP is inspired by the legislation proposed by Lawrence "Larry" Lessig as part of his presidential campaign. Given the outline he set forth, Larry has asked that the ECP become a non-partisan organization that is not affiliated with his campaign so that other candidates for president and Congress may support these crucial reforms.

Please follow all the usual discussion board protocols. If you would like to contribute technically to the effort, please make sure you have filled out the tech survey. Please also note that this is currently an all volunteer effort, so the organizing team may not be able to respond in a timely manner. Our near-term goal is to launch a kickstarter-like campaign in November to get this project started.
