Naniniwala kami na kinakailangan para sa mga mamamayan na magkaroon ng tiwala sa etikal na pag-uugali ng kanilang mga inihalal na opisyal. Kapag nagtitiwala ang mga tao sa mga pulitikong kumakatawan sa kanila, mas malamang na magtiwala sila sa kanilang gobyerno at mas malamang na lumahok sa demokrasya. <\/p><p>Isa sa pinakamabigat na responsibilidad ng ating mga halal na Miyembro ng Kongreso ay ang pulis ang kanilang mga sarili. Ngunit ngayon ay nakikita natin ang mga pagsisikap ng mga pinuno ng kongreso na magtatag ng mga patakaran para sa papasok na Kongreso na magpapahintulot sa mga halal na opisyal na maiwasan ang pagsisiyasat ng publiko sa kanilang pag-uugali.<\/p><p>Some of the reported changes are as egregious as narrowing a rule that says a Member's behavior must reflect credibly on the House, to allowing a deadlocked Ethics Committee to dismiss an ethics complaint.<\/p><p>Bakit mangyayari ang mga pagbabagong ito?<\/p><p>Sa madaling salita, naniniwala kami na ang pamunuan ng Republika ay gumaganti laban sa isang House Ethics Committee na tatlong beses na pinayuhan ang pinuno nito sa House Majority, isang beses para sa mga taktikang armadong ginamit upang subukan at hikayatin ang isang kasamahan na bumoto bilang suporta sa panukalang batas ng Medicare, isang beses para sa paglitaw upang iugnay ang mga pampulitikang donasyon sa batas at minsan para sa paggamit ng isang pederal na ahensya sa isang pulitikal na paraan. Ang pamunuan ng Republikano ay lumilitaw na sinisira ang isang sistema na nawala sa kontrol nito.<\/p><p>Walang mas mahusay na halimbawa kaysa kinatawan Tom DeLay (R-TX) kung bakit ang isang pinuno sa gitna ng isang pagsisiyasat sa etika ay kailangang bumaba sa puwesto, gaya ng hiniling sa kanya ng Common Cause na gawin. Lumilitaw na kasangkot si Representative DeLay o ang kanyang mga kaalyado sa pagbabago ng mga panuntunang ito upang protektahan ang DeLay sa pamamagitan ng pagsira sa gawain ng Ethics Committee.<\/p><p>The message to the American public is unmistakably clear: Congress is more interested in protecting its own than it is in being accountable to the citizens it serves. We can no longer refer to this body as \"the People's House\" with a straight face as long as it holds itself above public scrutiny on ethics. <\/p><p>Ang Common Cause ngayon ay nananawagan sa lahat ng Republicans sa House na bumoto laban sa mga pagbabagong ito sa mga patakaran.<\/p><p>We also call on Democrats in the House not only to vote against them, but also to speak out in opposition. Members' silence on this vote will make them complicit with those who want to change the rules.<\/p>"}}]},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.6 (Yoast SEO v27.1.1) -
