Avez-vous remarqu\u00e9 la vague de \u00ab scandales dans les assembl\u00e9es l\u00e9gislatives des \u00c9tats \u00bb dans le Sud ces derniers temps ?<\/p>

En Virginie, un ancien gouverneur, pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 comme un candidat potentiel \u00e0 l\u2019\u00e9lection nationale, risque une peine de prison apr\u00e8s avoir \u00e9t\u00e9 reconnu coupable de corruption. Dans le Tennessee, un l\u00e9gislateur a \u00e9t\u00e9 banni d\u2019un complexe administratif de l\u2019\u00c9tat apr\u00e8s des all\u00e9gations selon lesquelles il aurait eu des contacts physiques inappropri\u00e9s avec des employ\u00e9s du gouvernement. En Caroline du Sud, le pr\u00e9sident de la Chambre des repr\u00e9sentants a \u00e9t\u00e9 condamn\u00e9 et contraint de quitter ses fonctions et des rapports persistants font \u00e9tat d\u2019une vaste enqu\u00eate sur la corruption impliquant plusieurs l\u00e9gislateurs d\u2019\u00c9tat. Et en Alabama, le gouverneur lutte contre les appels \u00e0 sa d\u00e9mission ou \u00e0 sa destitution apr\u00e8s la fuite d\u2019enregistrements de ses conversations t\u00e9l\u00e9phoniques salaces avec un ancien haut conseiller.<\/p>

Les scandales, pr\u00e9sent\u00e9s dans un segment de Fox News diffus\u00e9 samedi<\/a>, sont un rappel malheureux de ce qui se passe souvent lorsque le pouvoir politique n\u2019est pas contr\u00f4l\u00e9 et que ceux qui le d\u00e9tiennent se sentent libres de faire passer l\u2019id\u00e9ologie ou les int\u00e9r\u00eats priv\u00e9s avant l\u2019int\u00e9r\u00eat commun et le bien public. L\u2019argent, le pouvoir et l\u2019influence sont un m\u00e9lange toxique qui donne \u00e0 certains politiciens le sentiment d\u2019\u00eatre au-dessus des lois, ou intouchables dans un \u00ab si\u00e8ge s\u00fbr \u00bb qui voit rarement la concurrence.<\/p>

Lorsque les \u00e9lus commencent \u00e0 oublier qu'ils doivent rendre des comptes aux citoyens qui les ont \u00e9lus, nous avons un probl\u00e8me. Une r\u00e9forme \u00e9thique fond\u00e9e sur le bon sens contribue \u00e0 garantir que notre d\u00e9mocratie fonctionne comme elle est cens\u00e9e le faire, en cr\u00e9ant un environnement politique dans lequel chacun participe, a voix au chapitre, sait qui tente d'influencer nos opinions et nos repr\u00e9sentants, joue franc jeu et est tenu responsable.   <\/p>

Comment y parvenir ? En G\u00e9orgie et dans d\u2019autres \u00c9tats, Common Cause s\u2019efforce de restaurer la confiance du public dans le gouvernement en \u00e9levant les normes \u00e9thiques des fonctionnaires. Nous faisons pression pour que des r\u00e9formes g\u00e9n\u00e8rent une plus grande transparence en termes de d\u00e9penses politiques, fixent des limites raisonnables au montant d\u2019argent et aux autres objets de valeur que les candidats et les \u00e9lus peuvent accepter, et \u00e9tablissent des m\u00e9canismes d\u2019application raisonnables pour d\u00e9courager les mauvais comportements.<\/p>

Nous faisons \u00e9galement progresser les syst\u00e8mes de financement des campagnes \u00e9lectorales qui combinent les petites contributions des particuliers avec des subventions publiques pour permettre aux candidats de mener des campagnes \u00e9lectorales comp\u00e9titives sans devenir d\u00e9pendants de l'argent. Nous proposons \u00e9galement diverses mesures pour \u00e9liminer les obstacles au vote en \u00e9tendant les heures de vote et en ajoutant des bureaux de vote, ainsi qu'en inscrivant automatiquement les citoyens en ligne ou lorsqu'ils s'inscrivent pour un permis de conduire ou d'autres services de l'\u00c9tat.<\/p>"}}]},"yoast_head":"\nScandals Hit the South - Common Cause<\/title>\n<meta
