Here’s something I don’t say often: on this point, I AGREE with

Indeed, I have long called for a LIFETIME BAN on former Members of Congress becoming lobbyists. The Swamp would hate it, but perhaps a chance for some bipartisan cooperation?

If you are a member of Congress + leave, you shouldn’t be allowed to turn right around&leverage your service for a lobbyist check. I don’t think it should be legal at ALL to become a corporate lobbyist if you’ve served in Congress. At minimum there should be a long wait period. twitter.com/Public_Citizen…

Bipartisan (or any partisan for that matter) cooperation in government should be the default - not rarities that draw coverage. Aim for victories for the people instead of the parties!
