One of the political issues that is heard a lot about in the States lately is campaign（竞选）finance reform（改革）. The people who are 36 for reform usually want the 37 to pay for campaigns and/or limit the amount of money that candidates（候选人）and their 38 can spend.
One reason that reform is called for is that it costs so much to 39 for political office. Candidates have to spend a great deal of time and effort 40 money. The incumbents (those already in office) have less time to do chief jobs since they must 41 so many money raising events.
Another 42 is the fear that candidates will be owned or 43 by the “special interest groups” that give money to their campaigns. Sometimes this certainly seems to be the 44 .
On the 45 side are those who say that it doesn’t mean it’s really 46 just because you call something “reform”. They argue that the right to freedom of speech is 47 if the government can limit anyone’s ability to get his or her message out to the people.
If one person or a group of people want to tell the 48 what they think about an issue or candidate, they have to buy 49 on TV, radio, and in newspapers and magazines. They might want to put up advertisements along highways and on websites. All this costs a lot of 50 .
Those against laws that control or limit spending say that you don’t really have freedom of 51 or freedom of the press if you can’t get your message out. They say the government should never be able to control 52 discussions. They believe that this is most important when the voters are about to make 53 .
