Our @WSJ deep dive on Warren's anticorruption proposals: would have far-reaching impact but face roadblocks in the courts and Congress, incl. among Democrats, potentially stymieing the rest of her agenda before it gets off the ground. W/ @SabrinaSiddiquihttps://www.wsj.com/articles/warren-vows-lobbying-crackdown-but-it-could-hit-roadblocks-11576929600 …
Warren says anticorruption is a prerequisite for big change: “If we don’t attack the corruption first…then we’re not going to be able to make the changes we need to make on climate, on gun safety, on drug pricing, on all of the big problems that face us."https://www.wsj.com/articles/warren-vows-lobbying-crackdown-but-it-could-hit-roadblocks-11576929600?mod=hp_lead_pos4 …
Still, Warren said in an interview that even if she gets her ideas into law she likely wouldn’t be able to stop all the ways money influences policymaking. “There may be the need for more changes over time,” she said, calling her proposals a “good start.”https://www.wsj.com/articles/warren-vows-lobbying-crackdown-but-it-could-hit-roadblocks-11576929600?mod=hp_lead_pos4 …
Also stay for the @WSJGraphics examining 1) the state of lobbying in DC and 2) how Warren would raise money from a tax on big lobby spending. https://www.wsj.com/articles/warren-vows-lobbying-crackdown-but-it-could-hit-roadblocks-11576929600 …pic.twitter.com/9KLKnq4FCd
Responding to assertions that Warren’s strict lobbying restrictions, which in some instances would include complete bans, could be unconstitutional, her top policy adviser had some words. https://www.wsj.com/articles/warren-vows-lobbying-crackdown-but-it-could-hit-roadblocks-11576929600?emailToken=3ff6e55e649ed725260a79b173e54a35xTRPG53DHzrcs6qpwa2yVOrZwHBKcB0IjIMsHg26Y8boowPfb6s6jIpk7FcY2wpWhbBd0xVYgYZ9uUtWCj16oEDw/DLQGeN0qlEgDg+KmqeFS6QkosWyxNOfSDr1CAux&reflink=article_copyURL_share …pic.twitter.com/s1QPxUQWWN
Of course all legislative proposals could hit roadblocks. This isn't unique to Warren. But you dont get what you dont ask for. And it will be edifying to see which politicians will defend corruption and which won't.
If the Wall Street Journal is trying to stop it, it's probably a good idea
Then we need to get new people in Congress, too.
Anyone who thinks that any of the Sanders or Warren agenda would pass in the next eight years is extremely naïve
