Elizabeth Warren on Washington Power $

Elizabeth Warren Money Quotation saying provisions of the Omnibus spending bill provided by Wall Street lobbyists protect powerful banks. Elizabeth Warren said:
 

 

“This fight isn’t about conservatives or liberals, it’s not about democrats or republicans, it’s about money – and it’s about power right here in Washington” — Elizabeth Warren

In this quote, Elizabeth Warren is arguing that the real issue at stake is not partisan politics or ideological differences, but rather the disproportionate influence of money and powerful special interests over the political process in Washington D.C. She suggests that wealthy donors and large corporations have outsized sway regardless of whether politicians are conservative or liberal, Republican or Democrat.

The quote conveys Warren’s view that campaign finance laws and the role of private money in elections pose a systemic threat to democracy by allowing a small group of influential funders to effectively buy access and favor with politicians across party lines. Warren believes this fight is about curbing the political power of big money in order to strengthen ordinary citizens’ representation in government.
