Shiva Ayyadurai on Government Reform

 

 


Pledges to serve one term, not focus on re-election

Career politicians exist to serve themselves, not America and not YOU. They spend 80% of their time after election to get re-elected, and the remaining 20% on legislation to pay back those who funded their election. I will serve one-term, 100% for you, and I will push forward legislation for your long-term interests, not my re-election.

We need term limits against lobbyists & career politician.

What better person to represent Massachusetts than someone who knows information technology, someone who knows biotech, someone who knows how to create jobs. A Senator is someone who is supposed to be a representative. I am de facto the best representative. I am not a lobbyist or a career politician. We need term limits. I'm not looking to do this as a job. One or two terms maximum and then get back to the farm. That's it.
