The Ripon Rabbit
About this show
For years, we’ve been told elections are about We the People choosing our representatives.
But what happens when campaign money begins flowing through organizations most voters have never heard of—and few fully understand? Tonight on We the People Wednesday, Red Owl and Screech Owl Scott take a closer look at the RACC Fund and ask the questions more Wisconsin voters are beginning to raise:
💰 Where does the money come from?
💰 Who decides which candidates receive it?
💰 What expectations come with accepting that support?
💰 And can an elected official truly represent their constituents while depending on the political fundraising machine?
After all, if everything is open, ethical and completely transparent, then asking questions shouldn’t make anyone uncomfortable. Some call RACC a necessary tool for winning elections. Others see it as another example of the political establishment rewarding loyalty, influencing candidates and protecting its own. Tonight, we’ll follow the money, examine the legislation that changed campaign fundraising in Wisconsin and discuss why this issue has become such a heated topic across the state.
Is the Wisconsin government being driven by the people—or by the people writing the biggest checks? The microphones are open, and your voice matters. Because asking where the money comes from is controversial…
Maybe that’s the first question we should be asking.
