Better: make Congresscritters pay higher taxes and fees, say double the going rates with half the value for any deduction, and make that liability continue for 4 or 5 years after they’ve been out of federal government AND professionally lobbying the government.

Also make insider trading by Congress illegal, require staffers to report on them if they do, and publish their investments made while in office.

If they can’t feather their nests them staying becomes less of a problem.
