An open letter to the U.S. Congress

Stop Congressional & Trump-linked Corruption: Support the Drain the Swamp Act:

28 so far! Help us get to 50 signers!

As your constituent, I urge you to support the comprehensive Drain the Swamp Act, groundbreaking package of reforms introduced by Congressman Greg Landsman and Congressman Josh Riley that addresses the corruption undermining our democratic institutions. Corporate interests increasingly dominated our political system for far too long. Members of Congress trading stocks based on insider information, politicians benefiting from dark money donations, and political appointees betting on election outcomes—these practices erode public trust and distort our government's ability to serve the people. The Drain the Swamp Act tackles these problems head-on with four critical reforms. First, it bans political insiders from stock trading and participation in prediction markets, eliminating perverse incentives that prioritize personal gain over public service. When those making decisions that affect markets can profit from their own policies, the system is fundamentally rigged. Second, the bill holds politicians accountable through 18-year Supreme Court term limits, ethics rules for justices, and consequences for lawmakers who refuse to govern responsibly. Federal employees should face higher standards of conduct than ordinary citizens, not lower ones. Third, the act strengthens constitutional protections against bribery and corruption by reinforcing the emoluments clauses, preventing presidents from using office to enrich themselves and their families. Finally, it defends democracy itself by overturning Citizens United, banning corporate PACs and dark money from politics, and stopping partisan gerrymandering that lets politicians choose their voters instead of the reverse. These reforms would return genuine power to the American people rather than wealthy special interests. This legislation represents the most comprehensive anti-corruption effort in our nation's history. The stakes could not be higher—our democracy depends on restoring public faith that government works for ordinary people, not the politically connected. When citizens believe the system is rigged, they lose faith in voting, civic participation, and the democratic process itself. I strongly encourage you to support the Drain the Swamp Act. Your leadership on this issue will show your constituents that you're serious about reform and committed to putting people before power.
