Is there a way to revoke party status from a Senator or Representative?

Is there a way, that after a series of votes that are not in the interest of their constituents, that a politician can lose their membership?

Being allowed to call yourself a Democrat brings along access to fund raising, advertisement, support, etc.

If a politician has decided that they are not going to support the citizens, can they have these privileges revoked?

If so, how? And I don't mean voting them out in 2-6 years, I mean now.

If not, why not?


I know it turns into a slippery slope, and there are recall abilities, etc, but there has to be SOMETHING that can be done when these people continue to vote against us like this. I don't want loyalty tests, or any of that, I just want people who legislate in the interests of the citizenship, not the President.

1. No

For them as for us, party affiliation is a matter of checking a particular box on a voter registration form.

It's more complicated than that elsewhere, but this is not elsewhere.
