sponsor legislation that would make the salary of elected officials based on the approval ratings by their constituency.

Created by D.S. on June 12, 2014

If Federal elected officials, such as congressmen and senators, were paid based on an official and annual job approval poll, there would be more bipartisanship. This law would encourage bipartisanship by rewarding elected officials for reaching across the aisle. They would have to listen to the needs of both republicans and democrats in their constituency in order to gain more approval and thusly earn more money. It would cut down on inefficient and ineffective party politics that has put Washington and America in a political stalemate in recent years, which has left the voice of the people a faint whisper in Congress.
