Ok, here's a first draft. It could be modified or expanded. Say, FOR EXAMPLE, that a Rep or Senator would have to get a minimum of 50 points to be admitted to their body:

Constituent Services (10 points)
-Questionnaires from constituents
-correspondence answered

Ethics (25 points)
-ethics committee ratings
-lobbiest contributions

Job Performance(30 points)
-Attendence at Committee Meetings
-Floor Voting Percentage
-Bills Sponsored
-Legislation introduced

Peer Ratings (Own Party) (15 points)

Bipartisianship (20 points)

This wouldn't make a perfect system, but it would weed out some of the worst offenders.
