Matt Gaetz exposes how Lobbyists buy Congress

– In the morning they hand them thousands of dollars IN CASH each to vote their way on legislation
– They bypass campaign finance laws by “hiring people’s otherwise unemployable family members”
– “The number of spouses and children of members of Congress who become lobbyists is astonishing”
– Lobbyists are in the halls of Congress daily, they “work the halls throughout the day with staff members who hope to one day become lobbyists”

“Senator Richard Burr from North Carolina, his wife and son both became lobbyists and he was the chairman of the Intelligence committee — Do you think that they had special persuasion skills or was it their familial relationship that they were monetizing?”
