John McCain

Mr. President, I am very pleased at the progress we have made. We have disposed of a number of amendments. I think we have had a level of debate with which Americans are pleased, as are certain Members of the Senate, by the significant participation that has taken place.

John McCain

We really only have two major issues remaining. One is the issue of severability, which is, if there is a constitutional challenge to this legislation, if one part falls, whether or not all of it falls. The other is the hard money issue, with lots of negotiations and discussions going on as I speak.

It was agreed at the beginning we would spend 2 weeks on this issue, and that was my understanding. It is now my understanding that there are some Members who think perhaps we would not move to final passage. I am committed to moving to final passage.

As I have said before, it is not the 2 weeks that counts; it is the final disposition of this legislation which I think not only I but the American people deserve.

John McCain

As I say, we have disposed of the major issues with the exception of two. Therefore, in regard to further consideration of the bill before the Senate, I ask unanimous consent that first-degree amendments be limited to 10 each for the proponents and opponents of the bill; that relevant second-degree amendments be in order, with 1 hour for debate per second-degree amendment; and after all amendments are offered, the bill be immediately advanced to third reading for final passage, with no intervening action or debate.

Reserving the right to object, and I will object, let me say to my friend from Arizona, he knows, and we worked on it together, the consent agreement under which we took up this legislation scripted the beginning of the bill. It did not script the end.

Mitch McConnell

The Senator from Arizona made very plain from the beginning he wanted this debate to end in an up-or-down vote. It may well end in an up-or- down vote, but the consent agreement did not determine that, and it would not be possible to get consent to structure the end at this time.

Let me say this to my friend from Arizona. I agree with him the only big issues left are the hard money limits and the nonseverability question. I do not think it is likely we would go beyond Thursday night, in any event.

John McCain

Mr. President, I appreciate the thoughts of the Senator from Kentucky. It is hard for me to understand now, with just 2 full days, 2\1/2\ days, why we wouldn't, as is our practice around here once we have considered a lot of amendments and a lot of proposals, as we reach the end, narrow down amendments. One, then, has to wonder what the intentions are.

I don't perhaps disagree with the Senator from Kentucky about the language of the unanimous consent agreement. I believe everyone was laboring under the impression that we would reach final resolution of this issue with an up-or-down vote. There are some Senators who now question that.

So I will be back with another unanimous consent request, and if that is not agreeable, then one can only draw the conclusion that there is an objection to a final disposition of this issue and that, obviously, would be something we would have to then consider.

I want to make perfectly clear again what I said at the very beginning, and I will be glad to read the Congressional Record when the unanimous consent was entered into with this distinguished majority leader. No matter how long it takes, as long as I can maintain 51 votes, we will not move to other legislation until we dispose of this legislation. For years we were blocked. For years we were not allowed to have this process which we now all agree has been valuable and helpful. But we need to take it to a final vote. I will be back with further unanimous consent requests so that we can fully bring this issue to closure.

Mr. President, I join in the remarks of the Senator from Arizona. I am pleased to see the distinguished majority leader on the floor, whom I have heard say on a number of occasions with regard to this process that he would not support a filibuster or an approach that would involve preventing us from getting to final passage on this bill. I appreciated those assurances, and I assume they still hold.

Let me make it clear once again, there would have been no consent agreement at all had the end been dictated by the agreement. I fully understood from the beginning that it was the desire of the Senator from Arizona to press for an up-or-down vote at the end of this debate. No one has been more aggressive than he has. Had it not been for the Senator from Arizona, we would not have been on this issue at all, at this point, which would have been my preference given the fact we have an energy crisis in the country, we have a stock market that is in trouble, and I, frankly, am somewhat stunned that we have spent 2 weeks on this issue.

Having said that, we have been on this issue because of the tenacity of the Senator from Arizona. The consent agreement was entered into because of the tenacity of the Senator from Arizona. But let me assure the Senate it was not just the Senator from Kentucky who would not have agreed to a consent agreement that dictated how this debate ends. So that is why I objected, not just for myself but for others.

It could well be that in the next day or so I will have a different view of that. But there are important votes yet to be cast, and I am sure we will be consulting -- the Senator from Arizona and I -- on the end game as we move along.

Harry Reid

Mr. President, Senator Dodd has worked tirelessly with the Senator from Kentucky. He spent long hours here. I think we are arriving at a point where perhaps this evening or tomorrow sometime we can get a finite list of amendments. We have been working on that. We have a number of people on both sides who believe very strongly in their amendments and would not want to be told they are not important.

Harry Reid

I have virtually been with my friend from Wisconsin on every vote we have taken this past 10 days. I think the leadership from Senator Feingold, with his partner, the Senator from Arizona, has been exemplary. But the fact is, we have spent a lot of time on this bill. I do not expect at this time we should rush on some program to suddenly end it. As I said, there are a number of people who have submitted requests to Senator Dodd about amendments that need to be offered. We expect to offer those amendments. I think we should move along as quickly as we can, and we certainly have tried to do that.

As I said, I think one way we can expedite things is to come up on both sides with a finite list of amendments and have that locked in. I hope to have that, after conferring with the leader and Senator Dodd, at the earliest possible date.

John Kerry

With respect to the question of how this issue finishes, I hope the leader on the other side, and those who oppose this, will not move back from what I think was an understanding by most people who entered into that agreement that we were in fact going to have an opportunity to come to final resolution on this bill.

John Kerry

Obviously, if we are deprived of that, then I suspect many of us are going to try to find every opportunity the Senate presents us over the course of the next months. There is a long schedule yet ahead of us. It would be a waste of the time of the Senate and an insult to the process to somehow try to sidestep an appropriate, complete, and total resolution, having invested the time we have in the last days. I think everybody has moved in good faith in an effort to present the amendments that represent bona fide efforts to improve campaign finance. But I certainly will join with a number of other colleagues, I am confident, if there is some sidestepping procedural effort to deprive us of the appropriate voting conclusion. We will tie up the Senate, I am confident, for some period of time in an effort to try to resolve it.

Mr. President, this amendment is one that I think Senator Biden, Senator Cantwell, Senator Wellstone, and I understand is not going to pass today. I hate to say that. I regret to say that. But it is a vote that we ought to have in the Senate. It is a vote that, in our judgment, represents the best of what could be achieved in the context of campaign finance reform. It is steps beyond Senator McCain and Senator Feingold, both of whom, I might add, have great sympathy for it notwithstanding the fact that they know, if it were to pass, you would have a very different mix in terms of what they began with as sort of a legislative agreement, if you will. I know Senator Feingold is a strong supporter nevertheless.

John Kerry

What we are proposing is something the Senate has visited before. We have voted on this before. In fact, the Senate in 1994 passed, by a vote of 52-46, a campaign reform bill. It never got out of the Senate in 1994. This particular one fell victim to the House of Representatives and to the delay of the schedule. Nevertheless, it reflected the willingness of colleagues in the Senate to embrace a partial funding by the public, a partial match funding in order to reduce the dependency of politicians on going out and becoming supplicants in their search for funds.

This is, in effect, translating to the Senate races the same principle that has been in place and has been used, even through the current election for President of the United States, in our national elections. It is a partial funding, a match, if you will, that seeks to address the extraordinary amounts of money that are in our campaigns today.

John Kerry

We bring this particular amendment because this effort of campaign finance reform is not just to create a regulation on how much money you can raise in a particular request from a particular person, not just an effort to put limits on. There is a larger purpose that brings us here. That purpose is to undo the appearance of impropriety that comes with the linkage of money to the fact of getting elected, the act of getting elected. Most people in the Senate who have been here for awhile have watched colleagues sometimes squirm with discomfort because questions have been raised about those linkages.

We have had investigations, both of the Senate, of the Ethics Committee, and of outside groups, that have often been pointed at the way in which we are forced to raise money. I think most people in any honest assessment would be prepared to say when somebody sitting on a particular committee has to go out and raise money from people who have business before that committee, or when someone in the Senate has to ask for money from people who have legislative interests in front of them on which they will vote, there is almost an automatic cloud. It is not something we define for ourselves, it is something that is defined by the system itself. It is there whether we like it or not.

I do not think there is one of us in the Senate who has not been asked at one time or another: Gee, did those people who contributed to you somehow have an influence on the way you voted? For most people in the public, it is a natural connection. If people see the milk industry, or the insurance industry, or the banking industry, or the farmers, or the truckers -- you could name any group. I am not being pejorative in naming any of those I named. Name any interest in America that conglomerates its money, and then look at the people who are elected, and you have an automatic connection, like it or not, of the money and the election process.

When you measure the fact that most of America does not contribute, most of America does not have the money to contribute -- we have one-half of 1 percent of the people in this country who give the $1,000 donations. I think all of the soft money in this country was given by about 800 people in the last election cycle. Think of that -- 800 Americans out of 280 million giving tens of millions of dollars to affect the political process.

John Kerry

Most of the average citizens sit there and say: I can only afford $10, or maybe I can afford $15 or $20 or $50. But they know; they sort of say to themselves: Boy, my $50 is not going to do much to alter the impact of $50,000 from some big, large interest, et cetera. They feel powerless and they turn off the system. They go away. They look at the system and they say: It doesn't represent me.

John Kerry

I don't know how many of my colleagues have stopped to ask, but why is it that a majority of the Senate is made up of millionaires? Are we representative of the United States of America as a group? The answer is no. But most people cannot afford to run for office, particularly for the Senate. So the question is, Do we have the guts, do we have the courage to come here and fight for real campaign finance reform that affords a more even playing field?

Is it a perfect playing field? The answer is no. We do not do that. And I understand that. But we can try to make it fair so a lot of people can get involved in the process.

Let me share with my colleagues this idea that we are submitting to the Senate today comes from a group of business leaders. This is not an idea that has been created by some sort of interest group that might arouse the normal suspicions of those who oppose campaign finance reform. This idea has been put together by a group called the Committee for Economic Development. Over 300 business leaders have endorsed this proposal. They include top executives of Sara Lee, Nortel Networks, State Farm, Motorola, Bear Stearns, American Management Systems, Hasbro, MGM Mirage, Guardsmark, Kaiser Permanente, Prudential, Saloman Smith Barney. They also include retired chairs or CEOs of AlliedSignal, Bank of America, GTE, International Paper, Union Pacific, General Foods, Monsanto, Time, CBS, Fannie Mae, Dow Chemical, and B.F. Goodrich.

The reason is, these are the corporate entities that keep getting asked to contribute and contribute and contribute, that keep feeling as if they are dragged into a process that they themselves know is not in the best interests of the democracy of our country.

We are supposed to be, as Senator Byrd reminded us in our caucus a few minutes ago, a republic. A republic means we are people who represent the people who elect us -- not the money that puts us here, the people who elect us.

The question is, Are we prepared to pass a campaign finance reform regime that distances us, to the maximum degree possible, from the fundraising and connects us, to the maximum degree possible, to the people who elect us? That is the purpose of this particular amendment.

This amendment is voluntary. I emphasize, it is voluntary. There is no mandate that anybody in the country has to follow this particular way of campaign financing. So there is no constitutional challenge here. You can choose to go in and live by a limit that you are given as a matching amount of money.

John Kerry

I want to explain exactly how it works. We want to encourage the small donor to participate in America again. We want to emphasize that it is the smaller contribution that is the most important contribution. So what we do is provide a matching amount of money doubled by the Federal Treasury for those small contributions up to $200. That means if somebody contributes anywhere up to $200 to a candidate, they would get up to $400 in a matching amount of money. And they would agree to live by a specific formula limit for each State in the country. That formula is: $1 million, plus 50 cents, times the number of voters in that particular State.

John Kerry

We did an analysis of the last two election cycles. When you compare the amounts that would be provided to candidates under this formula, it demonstrates that in only three races in the last cycle would you not have had enough money under this formula to be able to meet what happened in those races. The spending limit formula in 23 States would have provided candidates with more money than they had to go out and hock the system in order to be able to run. In an additional seven States, the formula would have brought candidates within $500,000 of the average amount that was spent in the last Senate election in that State.

Given what we have already passed in McCain-Feingold with respect to lowest unit charges, in effect, this formula would allow people to be able to spend more, if not the same, because they would be able to get more media buy for the dollars spent; and that result would be that they would be, in fact, greatly advantaged by this kind of formula.

What they also allow them to do is: If a candidate is not able to raise up to their limit, we allow the parties, through their hard money contributions, to be able to make up the difference to that candidate, much as they do today through the section 441(a)(d) contributions.

The virtue of this particular approach is that it does the most that we believe we can do to separate candidates from the fundraising process, to reduce the capacity of people to question the large contributions. We would still allow contributions up to the amounts of McCain-Feingold. So if that amount remains $1,000 in the primary and $1,000 in the general election, you can still raise it, but you only get credit for the first $200 toward your match. That means you would be encouraged to go out and bring people into the system for low-donor- amounts of contributions.

In every other regard we stay with McCain-Feingold. We want to see the ban on the soft money. We want to see the increased scrutiny, increased transparency, but we are trying to provide people with an ability to avoid the extraordinary arms race of fundraising that takes place in this country and to begin to restore every American's confidence that we are not in hock to the interests that support the campaigns.

There is a reason for having to do that. I remember when I was chairman of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee in 1988. As Chairman, I refused to take soft money back in 1988. We did not take any soft money in the committee. That was the last year the campaign committee did not take soft money because they could not in order to compete. From that time until now, we have seen this extraordinary growth in the amount of soft money being raised, so that there was almost $\1/2\ billion of soft money in last year's campaigns. Think about that -- an extraordinary amount.

But for 1992, the Republican Party raised $164 million in hard money, $45 million in soft money. In 1996, the $164 million jumped to $278 million in hard money; and it went from $45 million to $120 million in soft money. And this year, it went from the $278 million to $447 million in hard money; and the $120 million went up to $244 million in soft money. This is so far outside of inflation or any legitimate costs with respect to campaigning, it is insulting. The only way we are going to end that is to put in place a system where we bring Americans back into the process of contributing smaller amounts of money.

It is interesting that corporate contributions outnumbered the amount of small and union contributions by 15 to 1. Americans are currently looking at a political system that is effectively a corporately subsidized, corporately supported system. If you were the leader of any corporation in America -- there are a few who are making a different decision -- some of them have decided spontaneously they are simply not going to contribute, but unfortunately, an awful lot of them still decide: I can't be left behind, I can't suffer the vagaries of the system unless I can weigh in, unless I get sufficient access. So most of them, answerable to their board of directors and their shareholders, as a result, play the system as hard as they can.

Most of them will also tell you privately, they pray and hope the Senate will have the courage to change that system because they don't like it any more than many of us do.

John Kerry

The one thing we are going to hear from the opponents -- and you can hear it right now -- we have politics that are really good right now in using little phrases: "It is not the Government's money; it is your money. You deserve a refund." That is a quick, easy hit. People get applause. Everybody feels good and they forget about the fact that there are a whole lot of other issues.

John Kerry

We are going to hear them say: Gee whiz, politicians shouldn't depend on the public treasury to run for office. They are going to say this is welfare for politicians, "welfare for politicians" because somehow the Federal Government contributes. Ronald Reagan was elected using this Federal money. George Bush, in 1988, was elected using this money. Even the current President Bush was elected using Federal money. Bob Dole ran for President using Federal money. Countless numbers of candidates have run using Federal money.

It is not welfare for politicians. What it is is protection for politicians. That is what they want. They are afraid of a system that allows the average American to have a full voice. They are afraid of a system which requires them to go out and do anything except play sweetheart with a whole bunch of givers who give them big amounts of money so they can just swamp the average person who wants to run for office.

The fact is, if you analyze the amount of Federal dollars that are wasted and spent only because those interests are able to get the laws they want and ride roughshod over a broader consumer interest, there are billions upon billions of dollars that are spent as a result of the current system.

What this represents is liberty money for people in this country, freedom, the ability to be able to cut the cord of the system we have today and free themselves to be able to go out and have a fair system in which Americans can have confidence. Most Americans, if they were presented with that argument fair and square, would say: That is precisely what I want. I am willing to pay a $400, $500 amount to cover the cost of elections in this country in order to guarantee that people are free from the kind of special interest process today.

It doesn't make sense. That is what this is an effort to try to achieve. I hope my colleagues will think hard about it. Fifty-two Members of the Senate in 1994 voted for a bill that had a partial component of public funding in it. Many people have acknowledged that ultimately this is the only way for us to free ourselves from the current system. While we can't deal with the primaries, that is too expensive and it doesn't work. What we do is set up a structure where in the general election, there is a clear ability of people to spend a limited amount of money, commensurate with the amounts of money and in some cases more than even the amounts they spend today.

It seems as though the Senator from Massachusetts and I have been doing this a long time. We lost one of the musketeers in Senator Bradley. I don't know how many times we have come to the floor to talk about this issue. What is discouraging is, we seem to be moving backwards now instead of forward.

Joe Biden

I have a reputation that doesn't always serve me well of being relatively blunt. I am going to continue to exacerbate that a little bit today and depart from my prepared remarks at the outset and speak to the last point the Senator from Massachusetts was talking about.

Joe Biden

Our friends who oppose this will say to any idea of any public financing: Why should the public pay for bumper stickers and billboards and the like? I will bet you if you sat down with every American, and were able to do it one on one, and said: Here is the deal: Do you want me taking money from a checkoff system on your income tax, as the Presidential campaign is run, or from a direct appropriation that may cost you a couple bucks a year? Would you feel better about me and my independence if you did that and I had a limited amount of money if I were the nominee that I could spend, a limited amount of money based on the size of my State? Or would you rather have me hanging around in Hollywood, New York, Detroit, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Chicago, the major money centers of the world, sitting down with investment bankers and with corporate heads and union leaders and listening to them telling me what they think is important for the future of America and my knowing full well if I disagree with what they think is important for the future of America, that they are not likely to contribute to me and, therefore, if I have to rely totally on the people with the big money, that I may very well find myself rationalizing that, well, maybe it is not such a bad idea to be for that idea because it is better for me to get elected intact with most of my views in place than it is for me to be pure about this and not be able to run. I think the American people understand.

Joe Biden

I may be mistaken, but I believe Dick Clark, a former Senator from Iowa, and I, were the first two to introduce public financing as an idea back in 1974, in the middle of the Watergate scandal, to try to take polluting influence out of the system -- I don't think there is an American out there who thinks if they get a chance to come up and lobby me on a particular issue and say, Senator, I sure hope you will vote for this tax cut or that tax cut or vote for or against something, that they have as much influence on me as somebody who walks in having contributed $10,000 to my campaign through two PAC contributions. I wonder what the American people think. I wonder do they think their voice is as easily heard as the rest of those folks.

The thing that has surprised me over the years that I have been pushing this idea, along with others, is that we who hold public office aren't tired of this, aren't worried, why it doesn't bother us, whether we are lily pure or not, why it doesn't bother us being associated with the notion that what we do is a consequence of the financial influence placed upon us.

For example, I don't think there is anything morally wrong, per se, about PAC money. That is an organization getting together and representing a particular interest -- whether it is a labor organization, business organization, social organization -- and giving a candidate $5,000 at a crack. I admit that is no more debilitating, no more immoral, no more unsavory than five people getting together in one family and coming up with $1,000 apiece to give $5,000. But I don't accept PAC money, and I haven't accepted PAC money -- not because I think it is immoral or wrong, and I don't question the morality or judgment of those who accept it. I think I am one of the few people who don't accept it, and maybe one of the few in the whole Congress.

The reason I don't accept it is that I like the fact that no one can -- and I am a pro-labor Senator -- question my pro- labor votes because labor gives me any money. They don't. I can stand up and say I like the feeling at home that when I am for something that maybe not all my constituents like, but labor likes, nobody can use the argument that Biden has been bought off by labor because the following labor groups got together and contributed to him X amount of dollars.

Joe Biden

A lot of Senators who talk about being lily white and pure accept PAC money. That is OK. But the only reason I don't is I don't like looking at my constituents and them thinking that I have taken a position because somebody contributed to me. That just bothers me. That just bothers my independence. There may come a day I have to take PAC money. I may run against somebody who raises $5 million in PAC money and I can't raise the money, so I have to take it to compete. But I don't accept it simply for my own gratification. I love walking into a meeting with a businessperson, or a business organization, or labor organization, and deciding for or against them based on the merits and never having to talk about money. I feel liberated. It is my sort of self-imposed, tiny victory against this system that I rail against all the time.

What has surprised me is why people of this body would not want limits on spending. Do you think the majority of us like traveling two- thirds of the way across the country to sit down at a fundraiser in the home of somebody who is going to ask us stupid questions, who may be an absolute idiot, and is going to raise us $20,000, and we have to sit there and listen. Now I'll have everybody who has ever done a fundraiser for me saying, "Is he talking about me?" If anybody likes that, you probably should be doing something else because you can't be that bright.

So I don't get this. I don't get it. I don't get why we haven't gotten to the point that just for our own living standard, so that we don't have to get on planes at 7:30 at night and sit in an airport, and then miss it, and 47 thank-you notes why we could not be there and apologize and set a new date, and you miss your kid's first communion, or you miss your daughter-in-law's birthday, or something because you are out raising money. I don't think anybody sitting in here has any idea how much of our time is spent raising money. The more scrupulous you are about how you raise it, the more hurdles you place in your way to make sure everybody knows that you are clean and you are not like what people think you are, the harder it is -- the harder it is.

We all do it. We all sit here and say, wait a minute now; we just voted on a bill that will affect some of the people who are going to be there. I can't go to that fundraiser now. It will look like I did it for the wrong reason. I don't want them thinking that is why I did that because that is not why I did that. All Members here are moral, decent people. The irony is, this place, in terms of personal rectitude is probably squeakier than any Congress in the last 200 years because of all the disclosure rules. That is the irony. You used to have a person standing at a desk right over there -- one of the leading Senators in history -- who would write letters to the railroad company saying, "By the way, I just defeated a thing that would have hurt you. Send more money or I won't do it next time." The money that was being sent was in his pocket.

Joe Biden

When I ran for the Senate in 1972 and won, there were no limits on what you could spend or what could be given to you. My goodness, you would think by now the irony of all ironies is that I would be dumbfounded if any Member of this body was taking money under the table or doing anything illegal. They are the cleanest bunch I have dealt with. Yet we are viewed as being among the dirtiest bunch. Why? Because we are associated with all this money.

My mom had an expression when I was a kid. I would say, "Mom, can I go hang out on the corner by Buffington's with the rest of the guys?" She would say, "Those guys get in trouble." And I would say, "But I won't." She would look at me and say, "Joe, if it walks like a duck and quacks like a duck and looks like a duck, it is a duck." I used to say, "What does that have to do with anything?" She would say, "Those boys down there are not good boys. When you hang with them, even if you are not doing anything wrong, you are going to be presumed to be." What happens now when anybody within earshot, not holding public office, hears your child say, "Mom, I want to be a politician." I am not allowed to reference the gallery, but I bet if I looked at their expressions right now, they would all have the same expression: Oh, no, no, you don't want to do that. Why, when in fact they have more honest men and women in the business now than have ever have been in it? The likelihood of people doing untoward things relative to financial gain is almost unheard of now. When you have a billion plus dollars spent on elections, the conclusion to the American people is that if it looks like it is corruption, sounds like it is corrupt, it appears to be corruption, then it is probably corrupt.

So this has always amazed me. I would have thought by now that we would be so afraid of being burned by our association, unintentionally, with unsavory notions, causes, or people, through contributions, that we would say let's get out of this. I will tell you right now. I don't think anybody here would disagree. I would rather be beholden, or thought to be, to 280 million Americans than to 200 contributors. I would think they would want me to be beholden to them, not only in fact but in perception.

So what have we done? As my friend from Massachusetts has said -- and we have been allies in this for a long time, and I am a great admirer of his -- just since 1976, the total congressional campaign spending has gone up eightfold. In 1976, the average race for the House of Representatives cost $87,000. Today, it cost $816,000. Where are you going to get that money? Where are you going to go for that money? Do you think there is $816,000 worth of folks out there saying: Just because I love this system, I don't care what your positions are on any issues. I just want honorable men and women like you involved, so here is a contribution.

What do you think? Do you think that is how it happens? You know what it is for Senate races? In 1976, the average cost of a Senate race was $609,000. Now it is $7 million.

So I have gotten to the point where I am even more concerned about the amount than I am about the source -- more about the amount than I am about the source. Let me explain that. If, in fact, we are going to ever do anything about the influence of money and the ability of people like me to be able to get involved in politics -- I say people like me. No one who ever held State office, no one with any personal fortune or money, and who has a dubious distinction along with one other Senator on the floor being listed as one of the poorest men in the Senate.

Why are we surprised with a lot of millionaires? Do you know what a lot of us Democrats do, as Dale Bumpers, one of the best speakers I heard on the Senate floor in past years, used to say, in the bosom of the lodge here? Because we cannot match their money, do you know what we do? When we recruit candidates, whom do we look for, I say to the Senator from Connecticut? We try to find millionaire Democrats. We try to find Democrats who are millionaires to front their own campaigns because we do not have enough money around to front all the campaigns. We try to find people who are millionaires.

Mr. President, the fact of the matter is, we are never going to make any really fundamental change in the system until we adopt the position of setting limits on the total amount of money that can be spent in a single State on a single election.

Our approach provides the candidates with partial public financing when they commit to voluntary limits, and if the other person does not commit to those voluntary limits, then we allow that funding to go up so that person can keep in parity with the person against whom they are running.

It is a simple, basic proposition. By the way, it is complementary to the so-called soft money ban. It is not contrary to, it does not undermine it; it is complementary to the ban on soft money.

The spending limits for the Senate candidates are different in each State based on a rather simple formula that my friend from Massachusetts pointed out: A million bucks to start and then, on top of that, 50 cents for each person of voting age in that State. In my State of Delaware, that means one could not spend more than $1.3 million. In a State such as Illinois, where there are 9 million potential voters, one could spend $5.5 million.

I will not go through all the detail beyond that except to say that our amendment also includes a provision to counter those last-minute sham ads that have become all too common in the closing weeks of campaigns. Our amendment says if your campaign is a victim of one of those drive-by sham ads, you will receive additional public funding to enable you to respond to keep you in the game.

I have been calling for public financing for congressional campaigns for a very long time, since 1973, my first year in this body. I thought Watergate would have been enough to take us to the brink of trying to do something serious about campaigns. We did make some initial progress until the Supreme Court ruling in Buckley v. Valeo which set everything on its head, and now here we are back again.

The time has come, as my old math teacher would say, to work the problem and to stand at the blackboard until we come up with an answer that will pass the test of public confidence. The amendment we are offering today I think passes that test, and I urge all of my colleagues, for once and for all, do something that really will impact upon who can run, their ability to stay in the game, the ability to compete and reengender some confidence in the American people.

My closing remark is this: We have gotten to the point, as my friend from Massachusetts pointed out, of businesspeople dreading this funding process because they get held up for contributions. Beyond that, we have reached a point where, because we have had to become so brazen in the way in which we raise money, those who used to contribute to us who never were brazen in return are now equally brazen, suggesting they want to know more about what we will do before they give us the money.

Joe Biden

It is a bad system. This could go a long way to changing it. I have no hope that it is likely to be adopted this time, but someday -- someday -- it will, and I suspect only after some additional major scandal occurs. I want to make sure for my own safety's sake I am recorded on the right side of this argument again so no one misunderstands what I think we should be doing.

John Kerry

Mr. President, I thank the Senator from Delaware for his comments. As he said, he started this crusade back when he was elected in 1972. We had a high water mark in the Senate when we actually passed it. We also had 49 votes at one point in time. We know we are not at that high water mark today for a lot of different reasons.

It is very interesting what the Senator just said about businesspeople. I cited the types of businesspeople who support this -- major executives of major companies in the country. Here is what they said when they announced it:

The fact is that even the Supreme Court in the cases we so often cite -- Buckley v. Valeo, Colorado, and others, all of those cases -- talks about the legitimate right of Congress to try to curb the perception of corruption which they acknowledge on the Supreme Court is a component of trying to have good campaign finance reform.

Moreover, I point out to my colleagues, sometimes we all know Congress does not do what the American people think it should do or want it to do, but the American people want us to put together a better system. A national survey conducted by the Mellman Group in April last year found that by a margin of 68 percent to 19 percent, voters favored a proposal that eliminates private contributions, sets spending limits, and gives qualifying candidates a grant from a publicly financed election fund.

In other words, every time the Congress votes against public funding, the Congress is explicitly denying what the majority of the American people want, which is the capacity to separate the people they elect from the fundraising process.

That same survey found that 59 percent of voters agree that we need to make major changes to the way we finance elections. But perhaps the most telling statistic was the fact that overwhelming majorities think special interest contributions affect the voting behavior of Members of Congress.

John Kerry

Eighty-seven percent of voters believe that money impacts Members of Congress, with 56 percent expressing the belief that it affects Members a lot. We ought to want to do something to eliminate that perception and to restore people's confidence in this institution.

This should be such an easy vote that I don't think I will need all my time. I will withhold it for the moment to see how many speakers there are on the other side. Suffice it to say, that taxpayer funding of elections is about as unpopular as voting to raise congressional pay.

We have the most complete poll ever taken on any subject, every April 15, when taxpayers get an opportunity to check off on their tax return the diversion of $3 to the Presidential campaigns and to help subsidize the conventions. It doesn't add to their tax bill. It is just diverting $3 of their tax money to politics.

The high water mark of the checkoff was back in 1980 when 29 percent of taxpayers checked off. Last year it was 12 percent. In fact, the lack of taxpayer interest in checking off some of the tax dollars already owed to this cause, the drop off was so alarming that in the early 1990s when the opposition party controlled the House, the Senate, and the Presidency, they upped the checkoff from $1 to $3, so fewer and fewer people could check off more money.

Clearly, this is an idea that is overwhelmingly unpopular with the American people. We had a vote the other day on the Wellstone amendment. The Wellstone amendment gave States the option of having taxpayer funding of elections of congressional races. It was defeated 64-36. Maybe you could have argued on that vote that it wasn't really a vote for taxpayer funding of elections because it only gave to States the option -- the option -- to have taxpayer funding of elections, yet only 36 Members of the Senate supported that.

This is the real thing before the Senate now. This is not giving any State the option to have a taxpayer-funded system. This is the real thing, taxpayer-funded elections for Senate races.

I have been somewhat chagrined and mystified that we have spent 2 weeks on the whole subject we have been on when the stock market is tanking, we have an energy crisis in this country. What are we doing in the Senate? We are talking about campaign finance reform. At the very least, the underlying bill didn't have taxpayer funding of elections in it, but there have been first one, and now the second effort to add that to this underlying bill.

So I don't think the American people would be particularly amused if they were paying any attention to this debate, which they are not -- I don't think they would be particularly amused to find out what we are doing while we have these emerging problems in our country of energy and the stock market.

The argument over taxpayer funding of elections is a blast from the past. This debate over taxpayer financing is an idea whose time has come and gone. One of the huge victories on my side of this debate that we can savor is that reformers gave up on the horrible notion of taxpayer funding of elections some years ago. That is, most of them. We still have some people offering these amendments, and that is what is before the Senate at the moment.

It may surprise some of the people who are watching C-SPAN that we actually have had taxpayer financing of Presidential elections since 1976. This system has squandered over 1 billion tax dollars. In the 2000 Presidential race alone, taxpayers kicked in $238 million; 30 million of those dollars went toward the conventions in Philadelphia and Los Angeles. Fun weeks for those of us who were privileged to attend, but most taxpayers could surely come up with a better use of their tax dollars than underwriting political conventions.

Proponents of using taxpayer money for political campaigns get very creative in devising their polling questions so they can get results suggestive of some reservoir of support for this notion.

First off, they never refer to the money as the "taxpayers money." You will never see that in a polling question asked by a proponent of using tax money for buttons and balloons and TV commercials. They always call it "public funding," sort of like a public beach, public park, or public parking, leaving out the fact that the money started out in the taxpayers' private pockets.

Then they link the concept of public financing of campaigns to reducing special interest influence. Gee, that sounds like a bargain, except they can still get their numbers over 50 percent when they call it public funding and when they say it is for the purpose of reducing the nasty special interest. We all know the definition of a special interest. That is somebody against what I am trying to do. Those groups on my side are great Americans pursuing a wonderful cause. Those nasty special interests are the guys on the other side.

When someone such as myself frames a polling question in a more straightforward fashion, such as, do you support using taxpayer dollars for political campaigns -- very straightforward and very truthful -- respondents are decidedly less receptive than in the gimmicky polls that I suspect we have heard cited on the other side of this debate.

A reform group study in 1994 concluded that Americans remain skeptical of public funding for congressional campaigns. Remember, they were using that good word "public." Moreover, a careful examination of the core coalitions both in favor and against leads us to conclude that this proposal tends to be a hot button for a group that is not exactly a microcosm of America. Who is interested in this issue of taxpayer funding of elections when you call it "public funding"? It is a hot-button issue for liberals who are postgraduates, people who went to graduate schools. Liberals who graduated from graduate school think this is a great issue, that is, about 2 percent of the public -- not, I submit, a microcosm of America or anywhere near the average American.

When we look at the biggest poll of all that I referred to earlier, the checkoff on the 1040 tax forms which allows filers to divert $3 from the U.S. Treasury to the Presidential election campaign funds -- remember, this is money they already owe; if you ever change the law to make people actually cough up an additional $3, this fund would disappear entirely. It would be gone with the wind. It would be out of here. We would have to appropriate dollars to make up for the zero balance in this fund -- nearly 90 percent of Americans choose not to check yes to the use of taxpayer dollars for Presidential elections. Last year's forms, 11.8 percent checked "yes." As I said earlier, at its peak popularity in 1980, less than 30 percent checked yes. Imagine the results if the checkoff was for a congressional election campaign fund, which is what this amendment is about. Imagine the question on the tax form if it were crafted "congressional election campaign fund." People would not confine themselves to checking no. They would no doubt be compelled to include commentary in the margins on their tax returns. Such is the disdain for taxpayer funding of elections.

We haven't even gotten to another essential part of this whole issue. The Supreme Court does not allow us to just provide tax funding to the good guys, the Republicans and the Democrats. No, no. If you are going to provide tax dollars for campaigns, you can't constitutionally limit those taxpayer-funded schemes to the Republicans and to the Democrats -- which is all of us in here. No, the Reform Party, Ralph Nader's Green Party, and for that matter, any individual eager for some name identification paid for by the taxpayers would be eligible to qualify.

Let me give a couple of examples. That great American, Lenora Fulani, of many parties over the years, and most recently the Reform Party, has collected 3.5 million of our tax dollars for her in 1984, 1988, and 1992 Presidential campaigns. The taxpayers of America have given Lenora Fulani $3.5 million to run for President of the United States.

In 1992, in fact, Ms. Fulani was the first in line to receive matching funds, even beating Bill Clinton to the funds.

Lyndon LaRouche got taxpayer funds for the 1992 Presidential campaign. It was a little difficult for him to function that year because he was in jail. It was something of an inconvenience. But the fact that he was in jail did not prevent him from getting tax dollars to run for President. He was in the middle of serving a 15-year sentence for fraud. But, by golly, we got him some tax money to run for President of the United States.

Imagine, if we extend this great idea to congressional races, we are going to have Lenora Fulanis and Lyndon LaRouches running in every House and Senate race in America. Every crackpot who got up in the morning, looked in the mirror, and said, "By golly, I think I see a Congressman," is going to get a subsidy from the taxpayers to go out and see if he can pull this thing off.

LaRouche has received over $2 million for his 1980, 1984, 1988, and 1992 Presidential campaigns. If you take out the 2 percent of Americans who are liberal postgraduates, there is not a lot of enthusiasm out in the hinterlands for this kind of reform. Indeed, there is disdain for this kind of reform. I suspect there is not a whole lot of support in the Senate.

Looking at the Wellstone amendment the other day, which got 36 votes, maybe I will be surprised, but I will be surprised if there are 36 votes there to have this proposal replace the current system of electing Members of Congress.

I do not know how this amendment is crafted, but I can tell you, you cannot constitutionally restrict public funds, taxpayer funds, to just the people we would like to get it, which is people such as us who are Republicans or Democrats. We can't do that. It has to be crafted in such a way that these funds are not unreasonably denied to people who aspire, regardless of their ideas or present circumstance, such as being in jail -- their present circumstance -- you cannot unreasonably deny them their opportunity to have their say with our tax money.

John Kerry

Mr. President, I listened with interest to my colleague from Kentucky. I listened to him label this as an idea from the past. I am interested in that because it always struck me that the idea of the past was the perception of corruption of the Congress. The idea that ought to be passed is the notion that unlimited funds and unlimited amounts of money in our system corrupt and corrode the system.

If you were to ask the American people what they would like to see be the idea of the past, they would resoundingly, overwhelmingly tell you, as they have in every indication in the country, that they want us separated from these large sums of money.

It is no surprise my opponent comes to the floor and derides the concept of public funding as some sort of thing from the past which doesn't command a lot of votes. I understand that. I know we are not coming to the floor from a great position of strength. But we have to start from somewhere again on this effort.

John Kerry

We once passed it in the Senate, and we passed it once because it was the right thing to do and it was a good idea. I believe that the judgment made by those Senators who were then here is not now out of date; it is not now outmoded; it is not a judgment of the past. It was sound thinking. Once again, this body will one day come to understand that we need to separate ourselves from this money.

John Kerry

Senator McCain above all set a standard for making clear that this is an idea of now, not of the past. My colleague does not even support campaign finance reform. He doesn't think McCain-Feingold ought to pass, let alone this amendment. It is no surprise he comes to the floor derisive about the concept of some level of public money being used to separate the politicians from the perceptions that cloud this institution.

John Kerry

My colleague from Kentucky brought an amendment a few years ago, with other people, I believe, to terminate the funding process of the Presidential races. Guess what. He lost. The Senate said we want to continue to have our Presidential races funded the way they are, even if it means that a fringe candidate such as a Lyndon LaRouche may get a couple of million dollars to run for office. That is the price in America of having a system that is free from special interests. That is the price.

The fact is, none of us can choose and pick who the candidates are. My colleague from Kentucky just acknowledged he does not know how this bill is structured. Maybe it would help him if he understood to some degree that it is structured in a way that not just anybody can run under this bill. You do not get the public funding unless you raise some money, and you can only raise some money if you have some kind of base of support. You only get some funding for the larger numbers of people you can entice to support you. So presumably there is a reflection in how much money you would ultimately get that is a reflection of what kind of candidate you are -- whether you come with legitimacy or you do not come with legitimacy; otherwise, you are not going to get much.

Second, contrary to what my friend from Kentucky said, we do not mandate this on anybody. If you do not want to do this, you do not have to do this. If you are more content to go out and raise millions of dollars from all the interests, go do it. This system is only for those who choose to live by the limits. But the one differential would be involved if some multimillionaire is running against you, or someone wants to go out and court all the other interests and get $50,000, $150,000 at a whack, and have ads run that are completely outside of what even the 1974 election reforms tried to achieve. We are driving through the largest loophole we have ever seen in this process. I regret to say that began in 1996 -- not before. But the fact is, we have ads run under the guise of being issue ads that everybody knows are directed to either tear down someone's character or argue against their election. They are completely outside the mainstream of the election, except to the degree that they have a profound impact on it.

I guarantee that over a period of time, as Americans continue to be disenchanted, as Senator McCain's campaign so aptly showed -- and the reason Senator McCain's so aptly showed it is that what he did was he connected the dots for people. People want prescription drugs in Medicare. People want health maintenance organizations to be accountable to them. They want to know a doctor will make a medical decision about their potential illness or real illness if they have one. What Senator McCain did was show them the reason they do not get a lot of these things that they want is that the money manages to completely cloud the issues and real choices.

Americans are subjected to this cacophony of funding which, frankly, crowds out even the voices of the candidates themselves in many cases. That is what this is about, a voluntary system giving people choice, allowing them to make up their own minds.

John Kerry

What are my colleagues so afraid of? What are they afraid of? That another candidate might have the voluntary choice to decide to do this? They don't have to do it. What are they afraid of? There is far more taxpayers' dollars spent and wasted as a result of the campaign system we have today than this system would cost any American.

John Kerry

Senator McCain always talks about an aircraft carrier being built that the Navy did not ask for. That aircraft carrier alone would fund 10 years of election cycles under this bill -- that one alone. How many different examples are there of things that get passed because of the money in politics, not because the voice of the American people asked for it?

John Kerry

He talks about the $3 checkoff. Yes, he is right. The $3 checkoff has diminished. But has anybody in America seen an advertisement asking them to participate? Has anyone in America had any kind of public input suggesting to them that if they were to check off, they could have a system that is perception-corruption free? The answer is no. We do not advertise. We do not ask accountants to suggest to their clients that they ought to check it off. There has been no effort whatsoever to try to bring Americans into the process of participation.

John Kerry

I will tell you, for most Americans who look at the system the way it is today, it is no wonder they do not check it off because they have no sense of the connection of that system to the potential that they would be participating in something that actually works and that is free and clear from the kind of cloud they see today.

First, as you have heard earlier in the debate, it is an addition to McCain-Feingold. We are trying to ban soft money, limit out of control issue ads, and increase disclosure on independent expenditures. But we also want to give candidates the opportunity to try a system that will free them, their time and their energy, to focus on the issues of the people.

You have heard some of the CEO's and officials of the businesses that are part of this Committee for Economic Development, the CED. Why are they supporting such an amendment? Because they understand the world around us is changing, that they live in an information age, and that as they make better decisions, with more information and a more- informed public, they would like to see a better decision making process in the Senate.

Those businesses that have joined this effort to try to reform our political system, and to have a better decision making process, include Nortel, State Farm, Bear Stearns, the Frank Russell Company, the Vista Corporation of Spokane, Allied Signal, GTE, Dow Chemical -- a variety of people who are not just a bunch of Members of the Senate.

This is a movement grabbing hold in businesses across America because they know our decisionmaking process is flawed. And this will only grow if this amendment is defeated, and we will see this organization and its supporters back again.

The third point that I would like to make is that this is in the best interest of the taxpayers. Do not be fooled. The discussion has been that if you vote for public financing, that is a vote for the public's paying for this process. That somehow it is going to cost them in their pocketbook.

We have heard a lot about the Presidential system and the checkoff. But I would ask you to think for a minute, how much is this system costing us when we do not get a prescription drug bill? How much does it cost senior citizens who live on a fixed income, who have to pay thousands of dollars a year for prescription drugs? Because we have been smart enough to figure out the new technologies for new drug therapies -- smart enough to figure that out in a new information age -- but not smart enough to make prescription drugs affordable.

Why is that? Because our campaign system does not reward that kind of thinking. It rewards a very short-term decision making process that does not discuss the fact that prescription drugs have become 30 percent of our overall health care costs, not 5 percent as they were 10 or 15 years ago. That is what is wrong with the decision making process.

The fact that we do not have a Patients' Bill of Rights, the fact that we do not spend the time and energy debating a real Patients' Bill of Rights and getting that issue before the Congress in a more aggressive way, and coming to terms and bringing the amendments and alternatives to the floor. That failure costs citizens of our country real personal and great hardships. This issue of whether it involves the public, I can tell you, it is costing us by not reforming our system.

What this amendment does today is to try to curb the amount of spending in our political campaigns and set limits. And it does so in a very reasonable way, while at the same time giving people the opportunity to get their message out and to participate in the system as they so wish.

I have learned a lot in the last weeks about how deep the cynicism in Washington is when it comes to discussing campaign finance reform. I am deeply committed to overcoming that cynicism and getting a whole generation of young people to take up this torch and change this system as opposed to thinking that government today is not as efficient in dealing with its issues.

But until we craft a campaign system with a shorter, more intensive campaign period, funded with finite and equal resources available to candidates, we will not govern well. Instead, the American public will be subject to the kind of campaigning, the kind of special interest ads deluging them in their living rooms with the discussions, not by the candidates, but by these interest groups of what your choices in America should be.

I am saying, follow the money back to the citizens of this country. Not until we have freed candidates from the time and energy drained from dialing for dollars will we improve the political discourse, play down the dominance of polls, and render the attack-driven, negative 30- second spots ineffective.

I think that day will come. I hate to wait until we have Internet voting, and an information age where citizens will look at all this information and find out exactly, in great detail, what their Senators and Members have been working on. I hope we can get it done sooner than that.

I commend Senator Kerry and the other sponsors -- Senators Biden and Wellstone for their long-term vision on this issue because it is a vision that is headed in the right direction and it has articulated a better vision for campaign finance reform.

This amendment would make a real difference in how campaigns in this country are conducted. I hope, as the CED and Members join in this effort, we can reach a bipartisan consensus to take a step forward in curbing the spending and improving the participation in our campaign system in America.

John Kerry

Let me point out to colleagues -- and I emphasize -- this does not change McCain-Feingold at all, No. 1. It embraces everything that is in McCain-Feingold. No. 2, it is purely voluntary. But, importantly, colleagues should note, 23 States in this country already have some form of public funding.

In the last few years, several States -- Maine, Vermont, Massachusetts, I think Arizona -- have moved to embrace something called Clean Elections, which have an even lower threshold than what I am supporting today.

John Kerry

I support the Clean Elections. Senator Wellstone and I have been advocates of it. But what we are coming in with is something that has broader bipartisan support, where businesses across the country -- 350 major business leaders and corporations -- say: We have had enough of this other system. Here is a way we think is fair that encourages small contributions, encourages citizen participation, and provides some measure of public funding.

John Kerry

So I think the trend with the public in America is to move in this direction. I think that further counters the idea that this is somehow an old idea.

John Kerry

This is passing in States, and inevitably it is going to continue as a grassroots State movement where, once again, Washington, unless we change, is going to be not leading but following the American people.

Mr. President, I commend my colleague from Massachusetts, Senator Biden, Senator Wellstone, and our new Member, Senator Cantwell. I didn't hear all of the statements, but I listened to several of them. I was impressed with their astuteness and their level of articulation in support of this proposal.

This amendment, as my colleague from Kentucky knows, is not going to pass. We don't have the votes for this amendment. The Senator from Massachusetts was fully aware of that the moment he stood up and offered the amendment. Unfortunately, that is the case. It doesn't diminish the rationale or reason for offering the amendment and asking our colleagues to consider it and informing the American public about the value this amendment offers.

Let me step back a little and make two points. The details of this amendment have already been discussed. I think my colleagues and others may be aware of specifically how the amendment would work. It is a partial public financing program. As the Senator from Massachusetts has pointed out, some 23 States -- almost half of the States -- now have adopted some variation of this approach. The trend lines are clearly in this direction.

Most sophisticated allies of ours, the most sophisticated democracies, industrialized nations around the globe, have also adopted partial public financing, not asking people to contribute more in taxation but a part of what they have contributed to support the underlying efforts of sustaining democratic institutions.

Let me make two points that have some value. One is, the reason this is necessary is that the Supreme Court has ruled that money is speech. Justice Stevens argued in a minority opinion back in 1974 that money was property, not speech. I agree with Justice Stevens. But he was of the minority view when the Court ruled on Buckley v. Valeo. For that simple conclusion that money is speech, we have been running this process out over the years where our ability to have some limitations on the amount of dollars that are spent and raised in seeking Federal office is significantly jeopardized because of the constitutionality of such provisions.

In the absence of having some public financing, we have had now for some 25 years public financing of our Presidential elections. Every single candidate for the Presidency, every prevailing candidate for the Presidency -- beginning with Gerald Ford through Ronald Reagan, through George Bush 1 and 2, Bill Clinton -- has taken public money. No greater conservative than Ronald Reagan took public money to run for the Presidency because, under that scheme, we could limit to some degree the amount that would be spent.

I know we have spent a lot of money on races. I hate to think of what the cost would have been in the absence of the public financing arrangement which every candidate has accepted, almost without exception, since 1976.

What the Senator from Massachusetts and those of us who are supporting his efforts are suggesting is that if it has worked fairly well in Presidential contests, if it is working fairly well in 23 States, if it is working fairly well in major democracies around the world, is it such a radical idea to slow down the money chase of multimillion-dollar campaigns to try something along the lines the Senator from Massachusetts is suggesting? I think not.

This is a modest proposal. In the absence of the constitutional amendment that our friend from South Carolina offered, which would say that money is not speech and amend the Bill of Rights -- which many of our colleagues are reluctant to do, and I understand that; I happen to support him out of frustration because I don't know of any other means by which we can begin to try to slow down this exponentially growing foot race to gather the millions of dollars to run for Federal office -- in the absence of that, this is the only other way I know that we are really going to make some difference in what is a growing and serious problem in this country, where the cost of running for public office is going way beyond the means and reach of average citizens.

As Senator Kerry has pointed out -- I don't recall exactly the numbers, but roughly several hundred thousands of dollars, $300,000 to $400,000 on an average Senate race 25 years ago to around $7 million today -- the cost has gone from some $400,000 to $7 million in the last 25 years, with no end in sight. How many Americans can even think about running for the Senate or the House of Representatives, where the factor of increase is almost the same?

The second thing I will mention about this: I heard my good friend from Kentucky talk about the diminishing response of the public to the checkoff system on the 1040 forms that has gone from a high of 29 percent down to some 12 percent. That is troubling. I believe it has less to do with the fact that there is a checkoff on public financing for Presidential races than the fact that those of us in public life are so devaluing public service, are so devaluing those who dedicate part of their lives or years of their lives to public service, that we demean it. We ridicule it. We attack each other every year.

Someone once drew the analogy of comparing what would happen to McDonald's or Burger King if they engaged in campaigns against each other, competing for market share, with what we do as Democrats and Republicans in competing with each other for the right to represent them in public office. Someone suggested not only would they destroy each other, they would destroy franchised food.

If you look at campaign advertising, the attacks we wage against each other, the personal degradation we attach to and associate with our political competitors, what has happened is, we have so devalued public service and the public life of elected office that the public has become understandably disgusted with the condition of politics in America. We have no one to blame for that but ourselves. In no small measure that has occurred because of the rising amount of dollars that are spent being convinced by political consultants that the best way to win office is not to convince anyone of the merits of your argument but if you can convince people that your opponent is somehow unworthy of even consideration for the office, let alone that his ideas or her ideas may lack substance, then you can win a seat in the Congress of the United States.

Thus we see, as we did last year, where, of the 200 million eligible voters in America, only 50 percent voted; 100 million Americans cast their ballots for the Presidency of the United States, a decision that was made by a handful of votes in one State, and 100 million of our fellow citizens did not even show up on election day, where a tiny fraction, had they shown up in one State, would have resulted in a different outcome than what occurred as a result of the recounts and so forth that occurred in the State of Florida.

I suspect that a good portion of that 100 million didn't show up because they forgot or because they had something better to do that day.

I suspect a substantial portion didn't show up because they are disgusted with the process; they are sick and tired of coming into September and October after an election year and you can't turn on a single bit of programming without some mudslinging going on, attacking of one another, blistering one another. Whether it is through our own ads, or the ads of outside groups just trying to destroy the reputations of people seeking public life, I suspect that has more to do with the declining numbers of people checking off on the 1040 forms, the resource to support Presidential public financing.

One of the reasons why McCain-Feingold deserves support, in my view, is because there is some hope that this will put the brakes on, slow this down enough so we don't have an unending exponential growth of dollars pouring into the coffers of candidates and groups out there year in and year out, destroying not only the candidates, but the public's confidence in a political system that has contributed greatly to this great Nation over 200 years.

For those reasons, I applaud what the Senator from Massachusetts has offered. It is a worthwhile effort. I regret that he has to even go this route, but in the absence of it there is not much hope that we can do anything else in terms of getting the real numbers down. For those reasons, I support this amendment and urge its adoption.

Let me begin by thanking the Senator from Connecticut. He has been at this for a long time. He has a voice of enormous credibility on the subject, and he is well respected around the country for his political wisdom and abilities. I think his voice is an important one, and I welcome it.

Very quickly -- and then I will yield some time to the Senator from Minnesota -- when we talk about these perceptions, I am not going to throw names around at all, but I mentioned earlier prescription drugs and some of the health care issues. If you look at what the drug industry spent in the last Congress -- $8.7 million on political contributions -- the result in the 106th Congress was no prescription drugs for seniors. But it is interesting, the industry got an extension of the R&D tax credit for those companies.

Most Americans would say: That is kind of interesting; I thought I had an interest in getting something, but they got it. Likewise, the juvenile justice bill doesn't happen because the gun lobby doesn't like the restrictions on gun show sales. The gun lobby spent $3.9 million in political contributions in the last cycle. Interestingly enough, the juvenile justice bill died in conference.

John Kerry

Without using any names at all, let me point out contributions from the oil and gas industry. Three or four of the major proponents of oil and gas interests in the Senate received in the last cycle $129,921; one received $146,779, another $286,000. But it is very interesting. Other people who were not so interested in the issue got figures in the range of $1,500, $1,075. That kind of a range sends a message to the American people about the impact of money in the system.

Mr. President, it is precisely the perceptions -- leave alone realities -- of that kind of connection that distorts our existence and our ability to have the confidence of the American people.

My colleague has described the amendment, a 2-to-1 match for up to $200 worth of contributions. This is the public financing part that is in exchange for agreed-upon spending limits. I want to make two or three points in less than 5 minutes.

First, very soon we are going to have an amendment to dramatically increase hard money spending limits. The argument is that we really need to do this. As Senator Dodd said earlier this morning, poor Senators, gee whiz, we need to be able to raise more money. There is nothing like that. When you do that, you are more beholden. It is the obscene money chase. You are more beholden to big money.

Most people in the country believe big money can pay so they can play, but they can't pay so they can't play. This amendment Senator Kerry has talked about, and Senator Biden spoke about, takes us into a different direction. Candidates agree to spending limits, and you have smaller contributions. You get your support from a lot of folks, little folks, middle class people. What a better politics it is. It is an election and a politics in which people can more believe.

The second point is, if you view this as a system -- and I don't like saying this because I am an incumbent. But I think it is wired for incumbents. Most people agree that, by and large, that is true. If you want to move toward a more level playing field, in that direction, some system of voluntary, agreed-upon spending limits for public financing really gives the challengers and the people who aren't as well known a much better chance.

It is important to have competitive elections in a representative democracy. I can just tell you, remembering back to 1990 -- and Senator Kerry can go back to his first race -- I certainly remember when it felt as if when people didn't know you or think you had a chance and you could hardly raise any money, there was no kind of system that would give you a chance. We lucked out. I won because of my good looks and brilliance. If not for that, I would have lost.

The third point I want to make is that I believe this amendment, if it were part of the McCain-Feingold bill, would be another one of those reform amendments. I hope colleagues will vote for it. I think it is so much a better way of having people believe in the process. It is so much a better way of making sure lots of people think they can run for office as opposed to only a few. It is a better way of having people believe that these elections belong to them and believe they are more a part of politics.

I have heard my friend from Kentucky say more than once that any kind of public financing is "food stamps for politicians." That, again, presupposes that elections belong to politicians. They don't. They belong to the people in our States, to the people in the country.

This is a very good amendment. This is a strengthening amendment, and it is a very important vote. I hope we will have a strong vote for this Kerry amendment. I am very proud to be an original coauthor. I thank my colleague for allowing me to speak on this amendment.

John Kerry

Mr. President, I thank the Senator from Minnesota. He is one of those who doesn't just talk about these things; he really practices it. Everybody in the Senate respects the depth of his commitment to reform and the principles that guide him in politics. I am very pleased to have him as a cohort in this endeavor.

I emphasize to my colleagues that this is voluntary. It is absolutely voluntary. No one is mandated to live by this or to accept it. It simply gives candidates an option of being able to choose a different way of trying to be elected to high public office. It does so in a way that maximizes the effort to pull our fellow citizens who have less amounts of income, who have less capacity to influence the system into participating.

It encourages small contributions. It provides a match only for the contribution up to $200. Therefore, if you want to raise a large sum of money or even receive a large sum of money from the Federal Government, you have to include a lot of people in your campaign.

When I first ran for office, it was about $2.5 million or $3 million. My last race was $13 million. That is why we see so many millionaires running, so many self-funded campaigns.

John Kerry

What we try to do is allow an adjustment against the self-funded candidate. We do not preclude a millionaire who wants to run for office and spend his or her money from doing so. There is no restraint whatsoever on somebody doing that, but what we try to do is level the playing field a little bit for that person who does not have the millions of dollars so their voice can also be heard in American politics.

John Kerry

Most Americans would like to see a Senate that is more reflective of America, that has more people who have varied experiences and who reflect more of the life and real concerns and aspirations of our Nation.

It is important for us to move to reflect that Americans have a right to elect Senators the same way they elect the President of the United States: by freeing them from the extraordinary burden of having to raise these large sums of money from those most interested in what we do, when we do it, and how we do it.

John Kerry

The notion of voting for a voluntary system for people to participate in an election, the same way we elect the President of the United States, that that would somehow trip them up in their reelection, is absurd and completely unproven in the process. I reserve the remainder of my time.

It has been suggested that because Republican candidates accepted taxpayer funds to run for President, that is somehow an endorsement. It is noteworthy that President Reagan always checked "no" proudly on his tax return on the notion of using taxpayer funding for Presidential elections. The reason he accepted the money is because he really did not have a choice, as a practical matter, since the contribution limit was set at $1,000. All of his advisers told him there was simply no way, not enough time to pool together enough funds at $1,000 per person to opt out of the Presidential system.

President Reagan, were he able to observe the last election, would have been proud that our now President, George W. Bush, was able, during the primary season where there is enough time to reach large numbers of $1,000-and-under donors, to refuse to accept the spending limits and the taxpayer funding prior to the convention.

Knowing the President as I do, if there had been enough time between the convention and the general election to have avoided taking taxpayer funds, I am confident he would then, too.

The problem is, when you have a contribution limit of $1,000 a person, and your convention ends around August 1, there is just not enough time to pool together enough resources to run for President.

It is not appropriate to suggest that the Republican Presidents, at least the two I have mentioned, endorse the idea of taxpayer funding of elections; certainly not for House and Senate races.

The other point I want to make is there was some suggestion that large segments of the business community -- there was some discussion about the underlying bill -- that large segments of the business community were supporting McCain-Feingold. That is clearly not the case. I am only aware of one fringe group that supports the underlying bill. All the major business organizations oppose the bill: the Chamber of Commerce, the National Association of Manufacturers, the National Association of Business PACs, and BIPAC, which is widely known. All the mainline business organizations oppose McCain-Feingold, and any suggestion to the contrary is not accurate.

I do not know who else may want to speak against the amendment. I know Senator Feingold probably supports the principle but opposes the amendment and wants to speak.

I see Senator Thompson is here. We have not had a lot of speakers on this side. I think it is because just about everybody on this side has made up their mind on this amendment. Does the Senator from Tennessee want to speak against the amendment?

I think the amendment offered by the Senator from Massachusetts is absolutely the right policy. I have always believed completely in public financing, and the mechanism proposed in this amendment is the way we should go.

I have also taken note of the enormous amount of interest around the country in moving toward public financing in a number of States. Senator Kerry is right; this is a new beginning on this issue. It is not an old issue that has died. It is a rebirth that is occurring across the country, and the Kerry-Biden amendment is an important step in that direction.

When Senator McCain and I began this process, coming to the final stages of trying to debate this bill, we agreed we would vote together on all amendments to make sure we show we are unified and that this will continue to be a bipartisan issue. So it is particularly painful for me to have to vote against this amendment, but it is not because I do not think it is the wave of the future and the ultimate solution to this problem.

All the McCain-Feingold bill does is close an enormous loophole that has made a mockery of our campaign finance system. It is the idea and principle behind the Kerry amendment that is ultimately the direction we have to go as a country in campaign finance reform. I hope we can get started on it the day after we get this bill through.

I want to talk about one other issue to which the Senator from Washington, Ms. Cantwell, alluded. The time has come to talk about commonsense and conventional wisdom in the business community. It is common sense to declare our campaign finance system is broken and needs to be fixed. It is conventional wisdom, however, to say members of the business community must surely and monolithically oppose changes to the campaign finance reform system that has made influence available to them.

First, we see the release of a list of names of 307 of our most prominent business leaders who have pledged their support for the campaign finance proposals of the Committee for Economic Development, CED. CED is an organization of prominent business leaders which has endorsed the McCain-Feingold bill and issued its own proposal that includes a soft money ban. This list of business leaders is a who's who of America's commerce. It includes CEOs and current or former top executives from Dow Chemical, Sara Lee, Motorola, Goldman Sachs, FMC, Prudential, and dozens of others.

Look at the second item, the results of a poll of hundreds of senior executives conducted for CED. In the poll leaders of companies with annual revenues of $500 million or more overwhelmingly supported the provisions of our bill, including strong support for a soft money ban.

The poll, conducted for CED by the respected Tarrance Group included these findings: three in five top business executives back a soft money ban; 74 percent say business leaders are pressured to make big contributions. Half said they "fear adverse consequences" if they refuse to contribute; more than 80 percent said that corporations give soft money for the purpose of influencing the legislative process. And 75 percent say that their contributions work -- it gives them an edge in shaping legislation; 78 percent of business leaders agreed that the current system is "an arms race for cash that continues to get more and more out of control"; and 71 percent of executives in big companies say that all of these big dollar contributions are hurting their corporate image.

Business leaders believe that they are victims of a system that allows them to be shaken down. When asked why their companies give, the most frequent answer, from 31 percent, was "To avoid adverse legislative consequences". Twenty three percent say it is to buy access to the legislative process." As a result, a full three-fifths of senior business executives said that they support a complete ban on soft money. That number was about the same, 57 percent, even in those companies that have been recent soft money givers.

Those findings are grim but they shouldn't surprise anyone who has thought about the political environment businesses in America now face. Business leaders have had enough. They have abandoned the conventional wisdom about the benefits of this corrupt system, and they are beginning to lead the call for reform. I ask unanimous consent that a release summarizing the results of this poll be printed in the Record following my remarks.

A piece on the op-ed page of Monday's Washington Post entitled "Why this Lobbyist Backs McCain-Feingold." It was written by Wright Andrews, a long-time lobbyist, and a successful lobbyist, who has used this system to the advantage of his clients, but has finally said: "enough is enough." According to the conventional wisdom, Mr. Andrews is an unlikely advocate for reform. Not long ago, he was the president of the American League of Lobbyists, so it is fair to say that he was the lobbyists' lobbyist, but he seems to be a man of common sense as well, and there is what he had to say. He writes:

Mr. Andrews has put his finger on something. This system, especially soft money, taints everybody who is involved with it. Big money changes hands, things get done in Washington, and the American people think it is only common sense to conclude that corruption abounds. Mr. Andrews seems to understand, as the American business community now understands, that the appearance of corruption is just as bad for our democracy as actual corruption, because the American people don't see the difference. Mr. Andrews candidly admits that he and his clients have used money, within the system, to get legislative results. He continues:

This last quote from a Washington lobbyist is common sense and the new, emerging conventional wisdom. These three items make a few things clear. The old conventional wisdom about the opposition of the business community to real reform is wrong, and it is giving way to the common sense of the movement for reform. To those who will strive on this floor to beat back the reform America demands, I say, listen to these business leaders who are saying that they realize that the corrupt system in place does not serve their interests, or our country's. Listen to the corporate executives who say they are tired of the constant fund-raising and the feeling that they are being shaken down. Listen to this veteran lobbyist, and others like him, who are at the center of the current system and can't stand its rotten influence any longer. And if you oppose reform, listen to the common sense of the American people who today can take heart that the old conventional wisdom about the chances for reform is passing away, along with your remaining allies in this fight.

I can't think of anything more illustrative of the very issue that the U.S. Supreme Court asked us to consider in these situations. Is there an appearance of corruption? When the business leaders and the CEOs of this country believe they are being shaken down and that they are being intimidated into giving these contributions, at a bare minimum, this is the appearance of corruption that the U.S. Supreme Court has identified as the basis for legislative action in this area.

I thank the Senator from Wisconsin notwithstanding that he has to oppose my amendment. I understand why. I appreciate the gentle and sensitive opposition that he made, and I particularly appreciate the remarks he made about the CED and the business leaders who support what I am attempting to do this afternoon.

John Kerry

I will answer quickly. I always enjoy my exchanges with the Senator from Kentucky. He is very good at what he does. He certainly is one of the best in this body at making arguments. However, I must say I am a bit taken aback by the notion that President Bush made a judgment not to take the Federal money, or to take the Federal money because he didn't have time to raise the other money. He raised $100 million in $1,000 contributions and Senator McCain suspended his campaign in March.

The notion that President Bush, between March and the August convention, did not have an opportunity through his rather formidable fundraising machine to reask everybody for $1,000 who gave almost $100 million in order to find the $46 million necessary for the general election or some larger amount if he wanted to live by it is absolutely without merit. Everybody in this country who raises money knows he has the ability to raise $1,000 contributions a second time from those same $100 million worth of people who had invested in his nomination and who would not have quit on him and who would have wanted him elected President.

John Kerry

Likewise with President Reagan, the exact same circumstances existed. He took the money because the money was there, but also because Americans knew that is the way they expect to elect their President in the general election. I don't think you could have sustained the arguments that would have been made in the face of campaign finance reform advocates across the country who believe they don't want a President who, during the general election, has to raise that kind of money and be subjected to what we are subjected to here on an annual basis. There is an enormous distinction here and it needs to be made.

Mitch McConnell

Mr. President, I sum it up, this is an amendment about the taxpayer funding of congressional elections, about as unpopular with the American people as voting for congressional pay raises. We have the most extensive poll ever taken on any issue on this subject every April 15 when our taxpayers in this country get an opportunity to divert $3 of the taxes they already owe into a fund to pay for the Presidential election and for the conventions. The resounding number, 88 percent, choose not to divert money, although it doesn't add to the tax bill. They choose not to divert tax dollars into this discredited system during which one out of four of the tax dollars have been spent on lawyers and accountants trying to comply with the act and, of course, in recent years, more money spent by outside groups and the political parties in issue ads than the amount of money spent in the course of the campaign.

Finally, let me say at the risk of being redundant, you can't restrict tax dollars to the Republicans and the Democrats, as we have learned in the Presidential system which has provided millions of dollars to Lenora Fulani and to Lyndon LaRouche who got tax dollars to run for President while in jail. This is going to provide funding for fringe candidates for Congress and for the Senate all over America. Any crackpot who wakes up in the morning and looks in the mirror and says, "Gee, I think I see a Congressman," is going to have hope under this that he will receive tax dollars to help finance his campaign.
