recuse
This word is not often used outside a specific context. I am advocating for an expanded utilization. It has an honorable beginning in Latin "recusare". Now it means in the law to reject or challenge a judge as disqualified to act. Is it possible for unscrupulous politicians to recuse "donations"?

Re: recuse
I've seen it used in other branches of government, both legislative and executive when those involved with legislation or regulation recuse themselves because of personal or family business connections.
