GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Put an end to the that happened to Massie

*** begin quote ***

In the summer of 2012, the League ran radio ads in Tennessee and Maine asking Senators Corker, Alexander, Snowe and Collins to support campaign finance reform. The ads were made possible through a grant from the Unitarian Universalist Church at Shelter Rock in Long Island, NY. The ads were timed in anticipation of Congressional action on the DISCLOSE Act. The ads garnered press coverage from outlets in both states.

Today the League continues to push for legislation to protect and reinvigorate the public financing system for president. In addition, the League continues to work to reinvigorate the dysfunctional Federal Election Commission (FEC) which has refused to enforce the law.

I have some suggestion for Federal Gooferment campaign restrictions:

  • Only campaign contributions from eligible registered voters in the district.  (Limited to $1,000)
  • NO corporation contributions.  (Could be implemented by making it a tax event.)
  • NO Political Action Committee contributions or advertising for a candidate.
  • NO contributions from foreign governments.
  • Violations are sentenced to a minimum of one year in prison and barred from future campaigns.

That should put an end to the <synonym for excrement> that happened to Massie.

Argh!

Ask me how I really feel!
