order the FTC to regulate political campaign advertising under the "truth in advertising" law.

Created by W.L. on May 23, 2015

Since the FEC is completely dysfunctional and incapable of doing its job regulating political campaign donations, the problem can be addressed by eliminating false claims in political advertising. This should not limit free speech, as live political speeches and public conversations and news coverage would be unaffected: politicians would still be able to lie directly to crowds of people, and to lie to the media, they just wouldn't be allowed to use those lies in advertising.
