Have a Big Idea?

Any bill that is introduced cannot be written by a lobbyist and can only be written by the bill's sponsor. The bill sponsor cannot take contributions from any corporation or entity that will be affected by the bill.

Nice idea, but one would have to carefully define "effected by the idea." Many thousands of companies can be effected whether or not they are campaign contributors.

Pledge to accept campaign contributions from registered USofA voters only. No monies from non-voters (eg PACs & Corps). Those who don't sign or accept non-USofA voter campaign funds are publically announcing they represent non-USofA voter interests which threatens the integrity of congress; the security of the nation. Why is this important? The sovereignty of the USofA (via its constitution) is placed in the hands of the voters.

Great idea, completely shut down the federal government spending and return our country back to only the powers granted by the Constitution.
