FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Donn Janes, candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives in Tennessee's 8th district, is asked to join the Freshmen 50 coalition?
Donn Janes, West Tennnessee’s 8th District candidate for the U.S. House of Representatives, is proud to announce he is a candidate in the “Bullpen” of
- Apply the Law Equally: All laws that apply to all citizens also apply to Congress. (See note 1 below)
- Term Limits: Limit terms in Congress to no more than 12 years in the House and Senate, respectively.
- Enforce Congressional Ethics: Yearly tax and expense audits - former Congressmen and their staff cannot be lobbyists; allow the ethics committee to do its job.
- Read the Bill: Prior to final vote, the entire bill must be read out loud on the floor of the House; if a representative is not present for the entire reading, he cannot vote.
- Tax Reform: Repeal our current tax code in favor of one that taxes only once, at one rate, and require a 2/3-majority vote for any new tax. Donn Janes supports the FairTax as this solution.
- Balance the Budget: Amend the Constitution to require a balanced budget.
Currently, nearly 100 candidates have signed onto the platform and many of those candidates are in the most competitive races around the country. Any current candidate can join the Bullpen until September. This is the answer to the concerns of many Americans today – a coalition with the accountability and strength in numbers to get the job done.
The list of candidates will be made available at www.thefreshmen50.com beginning on May 3, 2010. The final 50 candidates will be selected based on a combination of their respective chance of success and the degree to which The Freshmen 50 PAC can make the biggest impact on the status quo. The final 50 candidates will receive PAC money and a national advertising campaign will be launched on their behalf.
Note 1: The exception to this is stated in Article I Section 6 of the U.S. Constitution.
