A good start, but their profiles are probably incredibly well scrubbed (or whatever is out there is already mitigated).
Instead, collect it on every Congressperson and then see how fast things change. Most politicians don't have the means to scrub their backgrounds like multi-million dollar PR-vulnerable CEOs.
- saganus 5y agoSeems more likely that those same Congresspersons (Congresspeople?) will try to stomp you out of existence, before making any changes to the law. I don't imagine people with such amount of power and connections to just roll over because "they caught us with the hand in the cookie jar!"

- freddie_mercury 5y agoCongresspeople are also all multimillionaires who are PR vulnerable. As of 2011, the average Senator had a net worth of $14 million and the average Representative had a net worth of $6.5 million. Presumably it has only gone up in the decade since, given the long bull market in everything. https://ballotpedia.org/Net_worth_of_United_States_Senators_and_Representatives https://ballotpedia.org/Net_worth_of_United_States_Senators_...
