Sever the chords that bind wall street to capitol Hill.

1: END CORPORATE CAMPAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS

2: RESTRICT LOBBYISTS ACCESS TO CONGRESS

These are two simple things everyone in occupy wall street can stand behind. So unite under this front, use it as your platform, become a serious and organized movement. These two simple things will help eliminate the effects of corporate greed, they will take the majority of the voice back from corporations and return it to the majority of the people in america, where it belongs.

Demand legislation ending the corporations ability to contribute to elected officials campaigns. No one wants officials to owe any favors to corporations.

The lobbyists over the past century have requested some very very bad pieces of legislation, and even worse they were listened to. We want the people to be heard above the corporations self interests.
