Quote:I hope you understand, you cannot repeal the First Amendment by passing a bill in congress.  

 

And no, I would not support any effort similar to what you are describing.   I don't believe it is constitutional to regulate political speech, and that includes campaign contributions.  

Quote:That was my first thought upon reading this thread. Congress does not pass bills to amend the Constitution. If they passed a law as described it would end up in court before it had any effect. They would not pass such a law anyway, it would strike at the heart of their lifeline.

 

In short, it's too hard to imagine a way this would happen to spend much time pondering any effect it may have.
