I heard i was illegal to solicit donations on federal property?

[ktlyon]

At the homeless walk-a-ton the police informed Street Sense vendors, the homeless paper written and sold for donations on Washington streets (which is all federal property since it is DC) that they could not solicit donations on federal property. So shouldn't politicians have to leave the building at least when talking to lobbyists or donors. Maybe lobbyists should only give advice and politicians should stay in their offices and do some work maybe read a bill or something.

2. The key word is "soliciting"

The lobbyists are giving the money away! No solicitation needed.

5. As We All Know

Bush follows the rules he wants to--it's not extortion when its a Repug, only when it is a Dem.
