Perhaps one of the reforms would be “full time participation in government”? Legislation as a “full time profession”?
Reinstatement of a 7-10 year hiatus between government service and work in a similar industry. This law existed pre-1998.

Enforcement of the rules of government by an Ethics Committee.
Your voice, your choice. Politics effects us!
