gainst ··· 00/00/0000 The revolving door and the influence of lobbyists is a huge problem, but I don't see how this bill really solves the issue. While I think the bill is a net positive, I am skeptical that it will discourage former members of congress from lobbying in a neutral manner. The companies that hire them could pay them just under a million dollars which would allow them to make a lot of money while still getting their pensions. I suggest that we brainstorm other ideas for reform, such as increasing the amount of time they are prohibited from lobbying to four or six years, long enough where their influence is diminished.
