The next President of the U. S. needs to issue an executive order requiring background checks be completed by all 542 elected officials at the federal level as well as their ~4000 appointees, and results should be made part of the public record
If we can require these checks be completed by our ~4 million public school teachers across all 50 states, we can require it of all elected/appointed officials at the highest level of government.
The checks would need completed with each new Congress, and a publicly accessible database of the results would be maintained online.
