It’s core policy platform, page 48 of their official manifesto and it’s been publicly stated by pretty much every DNC to reverse Citizens United. They’re also the only party to try to pass any antibribery and anticorruption laws in the last couple of decades, such was the case with HR 1 For the People Act.

No no. Politicans still want all that lovely money.
The dems put forward the proposal on page 48 to say that they want transparency, because that fucks over the Republicans more than them.

In addition to private contributions, they want tax money too. Additional lovey money.
Hang on. What about the dollar matching. You can’t have both. Also, private financing is free to supply lovely money at all other times.
“Crack down” is not defined. Foreign donations to foundations like the Clinton’s are unlikely to be affected.
But they will still exist to funnel all that lovely money.
“Light” lovely money will still be accepted.
But corporate PACs will still be able to give the DNC lovey money.
The DNC is not trying to reduce the money they are receiving.
