'The Swamp would hate it': Ted Cruz agrees with AOC on lobbyists

Sen. Ted Cruz said he agrees with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that the federal government should pass a lifetime ban on former members of Congress becoming lobbyists.

“Here’s something I don’t say often: on this point, I AGREE with @AOC,” the Texas senator said Thursday on Twitter. “Indeed, I have long called for a LIFETIME BAN on former Members of Congress becoming lobbyists. The Swamp would hate it, but perhaps a chance for some bipartisan cooperation?”
