Michael Bennet Pledges to Remake Political System

Politico: “Bennet is calling for a constitutional amendment to overturn Citizens United, a lifetime ban on members of Congress becoming lobbyists, a prohibition on political gerrymandering and a push for ranked choice voting.

But Bennet says he’s setting himself apart by putting these plans at the center of his campaign, arguing that reforming the American government is essential because ‘so much of what we want to get done, from climate to health care to changing the tax code, is going to require us to reform the way this democracy works/'”
