The Political Integrity Project (PIP)
focused on holding U.S. politicians accountable to their constituents rather than financial interests
Meeting # 3,858 - Daniel Lobo-Lewis
The Political Integrity Project (PIP) is a grassroots political organization and media apparatus focused on holding U.S. politicians accountable to their constituents rather than financial interests.
Relaunched in early 2026, the project aims to combat the influence of money in politics. Its primary functions include:
The Integrity Index: A database that tracks and grades congressional candidates on their financial and political integrity. It specifically monitors corporate PAC donations, individual stock holdings, and reliance on wealthy or out-of-state donors.
Political Integrity Pledge: A commitment where candidates agree to reject corporate PAC money, support overturning Citizens United, and back bans on congressional stock trading and post-office lobbying.
Accountability Tools: The project recently released a browser extension that highlights politicians' names on web pages and provides a pop-up preview of their financial data and integrity score.
