On relevance: my amendment does not deal with donation caps. It doesn't talk about the amount of money that can be put in by a wealthy individual. It is about spending caps, which is a different issue. That's the total amount that you can spend in an election. If 5,000 people donate $200 each, why can't that be used in an electoral campaign? What he's talking about there—wealthy individuals—does not go to this amendment.
