Forfeit of Congressional Benefits to Felons

Any member of Congress who is convicted of a felony shall forfeit any and all current and future benefits the member is entitled to receive.

Why is this important?

In our recent history several members of Congress have been convicted of crimes yet still receive the fringe benefits of that office. I propose a simple Petition that states, "any member of congress convicted of a felony forfeits any and all benefits of that office".
