    SCENE ONE (An empty stage. There is a podium and a projector screen emblazoned with the logo “WELLSTONE PROJECT.” A spotlight comes up on STEPHEN, who stands at the podium, dressed in formal attire. He carries a drink in his hand.) STEPHEN Thank you all for being here tonight – for your support – for honoring my brother’s life and legacy. (as HE speaks, the screen behind him flashes a portrait of Paul Wellstone) It would mean the world to them – Paul, and Sheila (the screen flashes a photo of Paul and Sheila together) – to see you all here tonight. (he sips his drink liberally and shakes himself out) I just want to apologize in advance – I never had my brother’s knack for public speaking. (HE chuckles nervously) But I always said… I always said my brother had a way of bringing people together… Sometimes in ways we might not expect. But – (the screen flashes a photo of a beach in Maryland) One way or another, it all leads back… to this. (without looking backward, the screen raises out of view, and the set changes to the beach seen in the photo, complete with a sunbathing SHEILA, reclining on a beach chair, reading a book) The beaches our parents took us to as kids… I haven’t set foot here in years, but I can still see it all like it was yesterday. (HE mimes to various parts of the set) The stand where they used to sell popsicles on hot days. (another) And over there, see? That’s where I built the biggest sandcastle you’d ever seen… Until Paul stepped in it.

Voluntary Campaign Finance Reform John Copeland Naglet Traditional campaign finance reformers have a dream. Limits on the amount that individuals, political parties, and other organizations can contribute to candidates. Limits on the amount that candidates can spend on their campaigns. Limits on the amount of "soft money" that can be contributed to politi- cal parties and interest groups for spending on political adver- tisements, party building, and get-out-the-vote efforts. Restric- tions on the "issue advocacy" advertisements that address current political controversies-and often critique the positions of individual candidates-but stop just short of endorsing one candidate or another. Television stations that broadcast cam- paign advertisements free of charge, and that provide more substantive discussions of the issues raised in an election. That is the dream. Buckley v. Valeo' is the nightmare. Buckley and its progeny have applied the First Amendment's protection of the freedom of speech to invalidate laws contain- ing many of the provisions desired by traditional campaign fi- nance reformers.

    Hot Waste, Cold Cash - Part II in the 2002 Elections Nuclear Industry PAC Contributions to Federal Candidates in Competitive Races November 1, 2002 Public Citizen’s Critical Mass Energy and Environment Program Public Citizen is a non-profit consumer advocacy organization based in Washington, D.C. Ralph Nader, Founder 215 Pennsylvania Ave SE · Washington, DC 20003 · (202) 546-4996 · www.citizen.org Hot Waste, Cold Cash in the 2002 Elections Nuclear Industry PAC Contributions to Federal Candidates in Competitive Races Summary In this report, Public Citizen analyzed contributions from nuclear industry political action committees (PACs) to federal candidates in competitive races. Using Federal Election Commission data compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics (opensecrets.org), we examined PAC contributions during the 2002 election cycle (November 2000 to October 2002)1 from nuclear power plant owners and operators2 and three leading trade associations of which many of them are members: American Public Power Association, Edison Electric Institute, and the Nuclear Energy Institute. We considered lead candidates in 76 competitive House races and 17 Senate competitive races, identified by the Congressional Quarterly analysts.3 Among the report’s findings: · Nuclear power plant owners and operators contributed more than $5 million to federal candidates in this election cycle. Slightly more than $1.5 million went to candidates in competitive races. · Exelon, the biggest U.S. nuclear operator, made the most contributions to federal candidates in competitive races, followed by Entergy. Exelon and Entergy are both participants in the Department of Energy’s (DOE) Nuclear Power 2010 program, which puts tax dollars towards the subsidized construction of new commercial reactors.

By Senator Paul Wellstone. Random House Press, 2001. 216 Pages. $23.95. On October 25, 2002, the nation lost a unique, energetic, fearless and impassioned leader when Paul Wellstone died in a plane crash. People from all walks of life mourned his passing; from the most powerful politicians to the country’s newest immigrants.1 Known as the “soul of the Senate,” Paul Wellstone was the mirror in which his Senate colleagues looked at themselves, searched their own hearts, and questioned whether their actions were just.2 Paul Wellstone was an extraordinary human being and an extraordinary Senator. Paul Wellstone was an unconventional politician. With wild, curly hair, slightly rumpled clothing and standing at a daunting five-feet, five-and-a-half inches tall, this college professor took the Senate by storm when he arrived in 1990.
