There needs to be a new publicized list, just like U.S. Senator Coburn did with the pork barrel list.
Any congressional member who has families that are registered lobbyists, must be posted on the internet, who they represent,and any deal they seal. No financial details need to be show, just the connections and relationship to the congressional member.
Daschle's wife was a lobbyist, I think Lieberman's wife still is a pharmaceutical lobbyist. Elaine Chao was lobbying while married to Mitch McConnell before she worked for the administration. Those are the major ones I know. There are tons more though of course. It's a big con to grease candidates. I am a fan of Curt Weldon, but to suggest that his daughter would have generated $1,000,000 in one year as a first year lobbyist is ridiculous. He likely didn't do anything wrong actually. Money gets thrown at lobbyists. If you are related to a politician, the spigots downpour. It needs to be stopped.
It should be a major campaign issue. Daschle really ticked me off with his. The Majority Leader of the Senate, wife lobbying. No conflicts there.
