How is money changing politics?

How is money changing politics? On the next Your Call, we'll have a conversation with Peter Stone, author of Casino Jack and the United States of Money about Washington super lobbyist, Jack Abramoff. In 2009, special interest groups spent more than 3 billion dollars to buy favors. What does Jack Abramoff's case tell us about the role of lobbyists in Washington? How do they affect the average citizen?

Join us live at 11 or send us an email at feedback@yourcallradio.org. What does it take to bring reform to Washington? It's Your Call, with Rose Aguilar and you.

Guest:
Peter Stone, a journalist covering lobbying and campaign finance issues for National Journal
