I’d be happy with this bill if

1. It forced Reps and Senators and their families to put all their investments in a blind trust.

2. Restricted same from having any investment transactions while they are a member of the House or Senate.

3. Violations punishable by a sliding scale of profit:
a) $100 - $10,000: forfeiture of salary
b) $10,000 - $100,000: expulsion from office
c) $100,000 - $1,000,000: forfeiture of all personal assets
d) $1,000,000 or more: death

Note: without actual consequences there will be no change.
