Fire ALL of them; Congressmen and Senators from both sides of the aisle. Make the job $50,000.00 a year for 3 years for Senators and 4 for Congressmen, and that's it. They would get one term only, no chance of reelection ever. That would stop a lot of the corruption. Also NO Lobbyist's period! They are supposed to represent the PEOPLE, not themselves or their corrupt friends. I would go one better than Ray’s suggestion.
