Progressive answer? What is that supposed to mean?
In SpeechNow.org v. Federal Election Commission, a federal court found restrictions on individual contributions to independent organizations that seek to influence elections to be unconstitutional. And in Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission, the U.S. Supreme Court decided that limits on corporate and union spending to influence elections were also unconstitutional.
Progressives disagree with these rulings.

In terms of the relief bill, you can pass it through budget reconciliation with 51 votes. You literally don't have to compromise.

I support getting money out of politics, that certainly doesn't have lobbyists.

This is exactly why we need a proper multiparty system
