CLEANING UP CORRUPTION IN WASHINGTON
(Mr. KHANNA asked and was given permission to address the House for 1
minute.)
Mr. KHANNA. Madam Speaker, all I want for Christmas is to clean up
the corruption in Congress.
That is why tomorrow morning I will be introducing my political
reform and anticorruption resolution, supported by Unusual Whales,
Capitol Trades, and Quiver Quantitative. CREW has also done important
work on these issues.
It calls for five things: First, a ban on all PAC and lobbyist money;
second, a ban on Members of Congress trading stock; third, a ban on
Members ever becoming lobbyists; fourth, term limits for Members of
Congress and Supreme Court Justices; and, fifth, a binding Code of
Ethics for the Supreme Court.
The American people on both sides are frustrated by the corruption in
Washington. We need real change. I hope Members on both sides will
support this resolution that we introduce tomorrow.
