Interesting ideas. Thanks.

1. Limiting contributions in any way would never pass congress since gleaning as much $$ as possible is why many, most of them run in the first place

2. Im not sure if the Supreme Court would agree to limiting free political speech district by district —- the court would probably say that you have a right to contribute to the congresscritters from other districts or states because their votes impact your life and liberties as much or more than just the vote of your local congresscritter alone.

Still, very interesting ideas— maybe? Thank you very much

I know it would never happen. The opportunities for corruption and graft would be much too small.
