Great, hope it goes through. But why isn’t the judicial branch included?
I agree, but if we can clean up some of the blatant corruption in Congress then maybe the corruption in the SC and elsewhere can also be addressed.
I assume if the judicial branch were included it would be found "unconstitutional". Maybe this has a shot of getting through the supreme court and then we can go from there.
