Amash says problem lies with entire political system

From our media partners at WOOD TV:

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — U.S. Rep. Justin Amash, I-Cascade Township, is gaining national attention for his pointed criticisms of Donald Trump.

However, Amash says the problem lies with the entire system, which he said is even worse than the wild corruption and cynicism seen on the fictional “House of Cards.” 

Amash hopes voters are ready to follow him on a path independent of parties or PACs. 

Amash started Wednesday morning with a trip to the Rising Grounds Café in Grand Rapids, where he explained why he decided to become an independent while sipping a complimentary hot chocolate. 

“I really did believe I could somehow change it from within,” Amash said of his days as a freshman Republican lawmaker. 

Amash complained that the process is broken because of the party leadership system in the House and Senate. That system requires the approval of the leaders before any significant amendments can come to the floor for a vote or even discussed.
