Issue Position: ANTI-CORRUPTION

Issue Position

Jon is the CEO of an award-winning company that specializes in hard-hitting anti-corruption investigations for international news organizations.

Since 2013, Jon has led more than 20 investigations of political corruption, organized crime, and armed conflict around the world.

Jon's teams have investigated and exposed dozens of corrupt politicians and judges, the theft and corrupt sale of U.S. taxpayer-funded aid intended for starving children and HIV patients, quack doctors who kill and mutilate women, and high-level organized criminals.

As a senior national security staffer in Congress, Jon led investigations of malfeasance by defense and intelligence contractors.

In this era of "fake news" and "alternative facts," we need leaders who will back their claims with real evidence and call out politicians who lie for short-term gain.

Jon believes passionately in integrity and transparency in government and he will use his real-world experience to root out and expose corruption and fraud in Washington.

Jon will introduce legislation to reform campaign finance laws and reduce the toxic and corrupt impact of money in politics. He is opposed to the Citizens United decision allowing unchecked, anonymous money in politics.
