Validation of Congressional Toxicity to the Public's Health

Though the position of front and center should be assigned, the public is often on the sidelines of federal workings. Still, even from the sidelines, the public is vulnerable to toxic workplaces. 

It is important to assess toxicity and hazardous Congressional processes that contribute to the public’s health. It is, after all, our field. We allow who does and doesn't get to participate. We should not allow toxic plays, again and again.

*Be specific with toxicity and hazards, and be detailed beyond verbal discourse. It matters just as much, if not more, when limitless Congressional terms foster individuals’ hierarchical power plays. This is true for both the politicians as well as the wealthy donors behind the scenes. 

*Report on political theater and its public health impact, across government structures and international borders.

*Report on Congressional inclusion, impact and threats as they pertain to Congressional access to emergent public health threats and any classified intelligence tied to human health. Where is the level of trust between agencies, Congress and the public? How can this improve, and how would reforms (campaign funding reform, oversight board reform, foreign influence criminal justice reform) impact the issue?

*Report on Congressional oversight with intelligence agency operations, management, leadership and reform. Report on indirect impact to the health of the public. Examine the threats that occur as a result of intelligence agency stagnation, including the toxicity of adding new agencies to democracies, and examine the balance of over-saturation with some data.

*Examine international response to toxic threats, hazards, public health failures or near misses that initiate on Capital Hill. 

*Survey and detail Congressional toxicity as reported from within.

*Determine broader survey expectations and statistical significance goals for public health metrics that gauge Congressional toxicity and its seepage. 

*Assign detailed intervention responsibilities across a range of broad partners. 

*Consider financial or donor consequences for negligence and carelessness to public health when public health is impacted by Congress’s preference for toxicity.
