Chuck Boyce: Revitalize the people's trust in their elected officials

For far too long our elected officials have remained above the law with a lack of transparency between the constituents they represent. I will actively push for full accountability for all elected officials especially federal office holders.

Career politicians have taken over our government which has led to our further polarized country with divisive party politics.

I fully support term limits for all members of the U.S. Congress and U.S. Senate to rid Washington of career politician and revitalize the people's trust in their elected officials. This will ensure an open dialogue with fresh ideas and perspectives to solve problems that directly affect the American people, and not special interests. Washington needs more rational leaders coming together on common ground solutions to enact policy that betters the everyday hardworking American.
