Chapter 610: Sniper Plan (2)

After Simon nodded slightly, Girl A continued: "There is also a report on campaign finance, which is expected to reach $4 million per senator this year, and the average campaign fund of a member of the House of Representatives is about $500,000 to $600,000, which is doubling compared to 1992, which is very beneficial to us." ”

Simon has also carefully compiled the information about the 1994 midterm elections in his mind these days.

The 1994 midterm elections are one of the most important things to remember in the Democratic Party's fiasco for decades, and the most important thing is to highlight the role of money in political campaigning.

Among them, two Senate candidates in California, veteran Democratic politician Diana Feinstein and energy tycoon Michael Huffington, have invested a total of $41 million in campaign funds in order to compete for a Senate seat, which is equivalent to ten times the average campaign funding of about $4 million per Senate candidate this year. And that $4 million alone is more than double the average campaign funding of less than $2 million in the 1992 Senate election.

In 1994, the average amount of campaign money per member of the House of Representatives was $600,000, which also doubled.

It was from 1994 that American political elections re-entered the era when money was king. In order to obtain more campaign funding, lawmakers from both parties have begun to push for the relaxation of restrictions on political campaign fundraising.

This phenomenon is the most beneficial for Simon, who is now lacking in money.

Seeing that Simon didn't respond, Girl A continued: "One more thing, three of the seven Democratic candidates on our sniper list are also targeted by the National Rifle Association, and one of the 16 Republican candidates is targeted by the Rifle Association, and there are similar three of their Democratic opponents. To put it simply, we have 4 people in common with the rifle association, and 3 people against each other. The rifle association did this mainly because those people voted for the Brady Act last year. ”

The Brady Act is a gun control bill with a core provision that imposes a waiting period to make criminal background checks mandatory for gun buyers.

There have been bipartisan attempts to push for similar bills in the United States for decades, and it was only last year that they finally passed.

The passage of the Brady Act and another example of Simon's memory of the assault weapons ban introduced in the second half of this year infuriated the National Rifle Association, and the Democratic Party's crushing defeat in the 1994 midterm elections was also inextricably linked to the operation of the Rifle Association.

After 1994, the National Rifle Association's political influence reached its peak, and neither the White House nor Congress avoided it, resulting in no politician daring to perpetuate the gun law for many years afterward. Not only that, but when the ban on assault weapons expired ten years later, even as public opinion demanded an indefinite extension of the ban, both parties in the United States chose to ignore it, leading to the re-introduction of a variety of high-powered assault weapons into the market, and the frequency of shootings in the United States increased dramatically.

Simon's 'sniper plan' is actually imitating the operation of the National Rifle Association.

Although the National Rifle Association has a profound heritage of more than 100 years, its economic strength is far inferior to the current Westeros system.

So, with this 'sniper plan,' Simon hopes to achieve a similar deterrent effect to the National Rifle Association after the 1994 midterm elections.

Thinking about this, Simon immediately remembered another thing.

The power of parliamentarians that the Westeros system has already fostered may also be among the targets of the National Rifle Association this year, and in any case, this part of the Westeros system's 'basic plate' is even more important than the current 'sniper plan', so it must be ensured.

Simon looked up and was about to say something to Girl A, when he thought about it and said, "Help me pick up Joseph." ”

Larry Ellison had just left because it was already off work on the West Coast, and it was eight o'clock in the evening on the East Coast, but Simon couldn't take much care of it.

Girl A felt Simon's tone, nodded, and turned to walk out.

A few minutes later, Joseph Schlap's phone was on Simon's office landline, and he was greeted by a Washington senator who was a member of the Senator's Judiciary Committee and a core member of the Westeros system's political 'base'.

After a brief conversation, Simon and Schlap talked about what they had just come up with.

Joseph Schlap was actually aware of this problem, and originally wanted to communicate with Simon in the next few days, but since Simon talked about it at this time, the two discussed the countermeasures on the phone.

In order to pass a bill of Congress, it needs to be voted on by more than half of the members of the parliament.

The National Rifle Association, however, is unlikely to target all the members of parliament who voted for the Brady Act and other gun control laws, but rather to pick and choose from them, as the Westeros system does, and there is a lot of room for manoeuvre.

Therefore, Schlap said that it will not be difficult to remove most of the 'fundamentals' of the Westeros system from the NRIF's target list, and of course the process will certainly not avoid some games and exchanges. Even if it can't be picked out in the end, both sides will show their talents in the election campaign.

Since Schlap still had a social, Simon didn't talk much about it. Joseph said he would fly to the West Coast on Sunday to meet with Simon on various recent matters, and Simon stopped by to say a few words to a senator, and the two sides hung up the phone.
