Democracy is defined by elections
Campaign finance is central to the functioning of America’s democratic system, yet it is wrought with public mistrust. A 2019 Gallup study found that only 20% of Americans are satisfied with the nation’s campaign finance system.
While much focus has been put on proposed adjustments to the regulatory regime through policy initiatives, little attention has been paid toward improving the existing processes of compliance and law enforcement.
4US addresses these challenges by reimagining campaign finance from the inside out and automating the core processes of data collection, real-time compliance enforcement and transparent disclosure.
4US is a non-partisan, automated campaign finance compliance utility which leverages breakthrough innovations in blockchain, artificial intelligence and payments technology. As a blockchain network, 4US unites committees, donors, vendors, banks and regulators to automate compliance operations, improve law enforcement and restore trust in our democratic institutions.
