[EX Q]: SECTION 1. SHORT TITLE.

This Act may be cited as the ''Citizen Legislature and Political
Freedom Act''.

SEC. 2. FINDINGS.

Congress finds as follows:
(1) The proliferation of campaign finance laws (beginning
with the Federal Election Campaign Act of 1971) and the
proliferation of government regulations promulgated pursuant to
such laws have placed strict limits on contributions by
citizens to the candidates of their choice, limits which have
served to severely hinder the ability of challengers to compete
on equal terms with incumbent politicians.
(2) The contribution limits imposed by the Federal Election
Campaign Act of 1971 force candidates to raise funds in small
amounts subject to fixed limitations, inevitably fostering a
system under which wealthy candidates and long-term incumbent
politicians hold an unfair financial advantage, which in turn
serves to discourage potential candidates from seeking public
office.
(3) The current campaign finance laws have inhibited the
full and fair discussion of public policy issues, as
challengers who are not well known to the electorate are forced
by government regulation to attempt to amass contributions from
large numbers of donors at the outset of a campaign. As a
result, challengers who lack the necessary resources to bring
new issues into the public debate often are eliminated from
political campaigns before their voices are even heard.
(4) The regulation by government of political speech
through the regulation of campaign contributions and
expenditures is patently undemocratic because it favors
institutionalized special interests over grassroots and citizen
activity by imposing burdensome reporting and disclosure
requirements and stringent spending limits on the political
parties, thereby tilting the financial and tactical advantage
in political campaigns to well-financed interest groups and
wealthy individuals.
(5) The effect of the unreasonably low contribution limits
has been to force more contributors and political activists to
operate outside the system, resulting in even less
accountability and even greater encouragement of irresponsible
behavior.
(6) The only way to encourage the robust discourse of
public issues and candidates, promote the free exchange of
political speech and ideas, protect constitutional freedom, and
foster a more informed electorate is to lift all current
restrictions on political candidate and party contributions and
expenditures and to provide full, instantaneous disclosure of
all contributions and expenditures in elections for Federal
office.
