Don’t forget to ban and outlaw any lobbying of anything
So repeal the first amendment?
IMHO, balance budget-type amendment is most important.

1) term limits
2) strengthen the 2nd Amendment at the state level by turning every state into a sanctuary state
3) abolish the IRS, FBI, and every other letter-agency
That's my start

I would be completely on board for term limits but I will add that a speaker should get one extra term (one term in general to be speaker). So 12 years and then one term as speaker.
I also think that they should not be able to receive money from lobbyists as it creates conflicts of interest.

Term limits
Lobbying made illegal as it is bribery
No voting if you're living off the government, it's a conflict of interest... unless you're a veteran
Congress gets paid the exact amount an enlisted soldier in the Army gets paid at the E1 level
Public executions for treasonous crimes by government officials

Decentralize and diminish federal power. 10 base locations - diminish Washington DC,
They have 19 states to commit so far to a Convention of States. They think there are 3 more on board this year. 22?
They need 26 to make it happen. I believe it is inevitable within 5 years or so...
it may be our only hope

Repeal the 17th Amendment and clarify the 14th to leave no doubt that children born to people in this country illegally are not automatically American citizens.

For the progressives in here, if you aren't a resident of Florida, for example, you can not give to a statewide campaign in Florida. If you don't reside in Valdosta, no contributing to municipal elections in Valdosta. You get rid of the money, you eliminate most of our governance problems.

I think that all were pretty damned good SCOTUS Justices.

Repeal the 17th Amendment.
Federal Term Limits amendment, effective retroactively.
Jungle Primary amendment for federal offices. (Direct shot at the national Party system.)
Age limit for federal office. (80 sounds good)
Protect the right to Free Speech in ALL spaces, not just public spaces.
Cleaning up the language of the 2nd Amendment to once and for all prohibit limitations to private gun ownership and militias.

In your view, do I not have “skin in the game” in all six? I should be precluded from supporting candidates who would benefit my property interests?

Has anyone considered introducing a no confidence vote? That would be handy right about now.
Posted on 6/19/22 at 7:43 pm to AggieHank86
Yes
Wherever you are a registered voter. I, too, own property in four counties. And two states. Small price to pay for election integrity.
