Sens. Rick Scott (R-FL) and Mike Braun (R-IN) introduced legislation this week that would prevent lawmakers from going to work as lobbyists for the rest of their lives.

“I’m proud to introduce this bill that imposes a permanent ban on members of Congress becoming lobbyists,” Scott said in a statement released Friday. “Rather than serving the public, too many in Washington spend their political careers preparing for a lucrative job at a DC lobbying firm where they can cash in on their connections and their access. Congress should never serve as a training ground for future lobbyists, and putting an end to the revolving door is a common sense way to make Washington work for families.”

The Banning Lobbying and Safeguarding Trust (BLAST) Act would create a permanent lobbying ban for all members of the House of Representatives and the Senate.

In the Senate, a two-year ban on lobbying is in place. House lawmakers have a one-year ban.

Braun said: “One of the reasons I left the private sector for Washington was to help President Trump drain the swamp and we can accomplish this by permanently banning Congressmen and Senators from lobbying Capitol Hill. Together we can end the revolving door of career politicians coming to Washington, spending time in Congress, then enriching themselves from their service to the American people.”
