Well kind of yes but no.
I think a representative should be able to talk to anyone they like and vise versa.
But I don’t think a representative should be able to accept money from anyone outside of their district or state.
I also don’t think there should be any limit on campaign donations.
Limits harm challengers more than they do incumbents (otherwise they never would have passed).
For Senators it all got fouled up once they became Super Representatives; directly elected by the citizens of the state.
Before election of senators was simply convincing the people of the state legislature to elect you to the US Senate and campaigning was just walking around the state house and talking to your fellow statesmen. Not (theoretically) a lot of money involved.
So, this ‘reasoning’ that if I YOU don’t directly represent ME, that I shouldn’t be able to talk to you should just take the natural course in regards soliciting funds from me.
Well kind of yes but no.

Sorry if I didn’t make myself clear.
What I mean is since ‘THEY’ are now allowed to screen calls to virtually only speak to their constituents, that reasoning should be giving ammo to ‘my’ thought of only being allowed to accept money from people you directly represent... works one way, should work both ways...
