P2- Clean Goverment & Oversight Package

Program 2: Clean Government and Oversight Package

Goal: deliver the accountability voters ranked as crucial, and show the new majority holds itself to the same standard.

Components:

1. Congressional stock-trading ban for members, spouses and senior staff, applied to the new majority first.
2. Executive ethics enforcement. Require disclosure of presidential and family business income, foreign payments and crypto holdings; strengthen the Office of Government Ethics and inspectors general.
3. Donor-funded project disclosure. Full public accounting of private donations for federal construction, including the White House ballroom.
4. Restored checks. Reclaim congressional authority over tariffs (Program 1) and war (Program 4); schedule regular, televised oversight hearings on specific spending questions.
5. Pardon transparency. Require public reporting of pardons and any related payments or lobbying.

Why the data supports it: 55% called corruption crucial, the highest of any issue tested. About 7 in 10 voters wanted more checks on the president, including about 4 in 10 Republicans. An even larger share said neither party was better on corruption, which makes this an open lane rather than a won argument.

Caution: oversight that looks like partisan retribution will squander the issue. Lead with rules that bind everyone, then investigate with documents, not theatrics.

Success metric: Democrats open a clear lead on “which party would better handle government corruption,” which was only slight on Election Day.
