If enacted, Warren’s ambitious measure would:
- Completely ban foreign lobbying;
- Bar members of Congress and congressional candidates from accepting campaign donations from lobbyists;
- Require the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) release the tax returns for federal candidates, including the president and vice president;
- “Padlock the revolving door” by imposing a lifetime ban on lobbying by former presidents, members of congress, and agency chiefs;
- Ban members of Congress from owning and trading individual stock; and
- Establish an “independent anti-corruption agency dedicated to enforcing federal ethics laws.”
