Washington, D.C., is broken, with 83% of Americans supporting term limits on Congress. As someone who has been to Congress, I’ve seen how it prioritizes staying in power over getting things done.
Corruption and Gridlock
Corruption dominates, with officials trading stocks while having access to insider information and taking meetings with special interests that harm working people. The result is partisan gridlock and corrupt policies that benefit powerful special interests.
I’ve seen this in Alaska, where people struggle with skyrocketing prices and feel the consequences of decisions made in Washington. The system rewards politicians for fighting, not solving problems like immigration and the cost of living.
Solution: Term Limits
Term limits can fix this by forcing Congress to work on our timeline, not theirs. I’m calling for 12-year term limits on Congress, which would replace career politicians with representatives who must deliver results.
This isn’t radical; it’s accountability. Working people already live with deadlines and consequences, and it’s time for Congress to do the same. Alaska can lead the way by passing term limits at the state level and opening a legal pathway for federal term limits.
