    the Reeko Act

    - 50 year minimum sentence for trying to overthrow an election

    - no police qualified immunity

    - abolishment of Citizens United

    will think of more to add to my bill later

    Mandatory voting, a clear rewrite of the 2nd amendment with emphasis on regulation, repeal citizens' united, term limits for SC justices and Congress, ratify the ERA, medicare for all, flat tax based on income, and outlaw state gerrymandering.

    I would pass the Campaign finance reform bill. It makes eliminates corporate donations to to PACs Super PACs, and only allows a set amount for campaigning provided by the Federal Govt. Each candidate would get the same amount and not allowed to spend any more. Other groups would not be allowed to spend money on campaigning. That would be true congressional, Presidential, and any other federal elections. This would help get big money out of politics and make politicians accountable to the voters rather than big donors.

    It would surely receive a challenge and the Supreme Court finally overturn its previous Campaign finance ruling.

    outlawing state gerrymandering is a good one, I’d add that to my bill as well

    I’d probably F around and get rid of the electoral college too and truly make things the will of the people

    A tax on every firearm you own, to be paid yearly - just like your car inspection....every gun would have a tax associated with it.

    Some D*mn good laws here

    Definitely tax guns and regulate them like Cars
    Definitely would like term limits
    Removing money from politics would be a great thing
    Corporations are no longer people and do not have the rights of people

    Limit personal wealth to, say, $50 million. All overages go to welfare, Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, affordable housing, infrastructure, etc.

    99ers can ban anybody except 99ers

    if one 99er contests another one, the obese 99er automatically loses cause 99ers don't like fat

    nobody wants fat supermodels, nobody wants fat 99ers

    Make Lobbying illegal if any money is attached.

    Make election day a national holiday and allow us to vote by our phones.

    I was thinking the same thing, do away with the Electoral College and let it be about how people vote. One thing I would like to see is (wishful thinking) a huge penalty for any politicians who bold face lies, they should have to stand in front of the American public and apologize for the lying..........far fetched but something along these lines, stop lying to push your agenda
