Qualified voters should not be excluded from voting because of:
Congress should guarantee the residents of the District of Columbia full rights to vote for representation in Congress.
States should revise ballot initiative processes to curb the undue influence of special interests with access to significant financial resources.
Legislative and regulatory meetings and procedures should promote public participation, be fair, and ensure accountability.
Governments should create and enforce strong ethical standards for government officials. These standards should promote honesty, integrity, and transparency.
