To: The United States House of Representatives and The United States Senate
We need a constitutional ammendment requiring congressional term limits and campaign finance reform.
WE support an Amendment to the Constitution, that Members of the US House of Representitves will not be allowed to run for re-election more than 2 times. Members of the US Senate will not be able to run for re-election more than 1 time.
Political donations may only be made by individuals and for no more than $100.00 US Dollars adjusted annually for inflation. That members of Congress may only participate in the same healthcare plan that is available to all members of the United States of America. That congress will not be paid from treasury, if and until a budget is delivered to the president in a timely basis for the purpose of running the government.

Why is this important?
Our goverment is out of control because elected officials no longer consider the people of the United States as there employer. They now work for a convoluted web of special interest groups raising money for a never ending congressional career. If Congressmen could only stand for re-election twice - it would be very hard to create a web of power to funnel cash. If we reduced campaign donations to no more than $100 per individual with no room for corporate donations, elections would be about the issues instead of name calling and political skullduggery.
