| #5 The term “busted” presumes there will be consequences. I don’t the current system will do anything to him. I do believe that Adam will be out of politics at or by the 2024 election. I think the pendulum on all this corruption has changed direction. |

| #3 Donation max of $1,000 per person per each of the 2 election cycles for election. Unfortunately, ActBlue and others have been harvesting names and using that info for sending multiple small donations (sometimes 100 or more donations made under one name for often less than a $1 each time) for several years. When queried, the named person might have made only one or two donations over the same time period. This type of fraud should be called 'Donation Laundering'. |

| #1 How about a simple Law that makes politicians answer to US the Voters and not Global & National deep pockets? If a politician takes money from a commercial or SIG donor, then due to conflict of interest, they cannot VOTE on anything related to that donors activates or business. Nor can can they or their family have, or accept any position related to that donor while in, or X# years after leaving political office. PLUS, only donations from congressional district - registered voters / Senate - state registered voters. Donation max of $1,000 per person per each of the 2 election cycles for election. |
