Veterans for Political Innovation
State Leaders
State Leaders are on-the-ground advocates for election innovations in their home states. The situation on the ground is different in each state. For example, some innovations happen in the state legislatures while other changes can happen at the ballot box.

Illinois Testimonials
"Like many veterans, I felt a call to action when I joined the military 15 years ago. However, this past decade has shown me that the current state of partisan politics is driving our country down a treacherous path of division and toxic tribalism. The reason I joined Veterans for Political Innovation is the current electoral system rewards this destructive rhetoric and the commonsense election reform VPI is pushing for will make politicians focus on their constituents’ desires instead of baseless culture wars. We’ll know we accomplished our mission when politicians actually campaign on policies instead of fear and hate."
