proposed 28th ammendment

[MoPure]

For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress. Many citizens had no idea that Congress members could retire with the same pay after only one term, that they didn't pay into Social Security, that they specifically exempted themselves from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any fear of prosecution for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must live under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare Reform that is being considered...in all of its' forms. Somehow, that doesn't seem logical. We do not have an elite that is above the law. I truly don't care if they are Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever. The self-serving must stop. This is a good way to do that. It is an idea whose time has come


Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution:

"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ".





[FONT=Verdana, arial]Perhaps we need a referendum to get this passed.[/FONT]

Feel free to forward this to as many people as you can, especially if they have knowledge and ability to get this into action.

Is this your Idea or something already being worked on. It's a great proposal. I'd like to see the politicans try to squirm out of it.

Nope... got it in an email, so I don't know if it's been proposed or not. I do know however, that during all the Obamacare dog and pony show, that one of the republican senators put that on the table. He asked all of congress to vote for the healthcare bill ONLY if they were willing to have the same coverage. There's the only HOPE I've had during this administration. I don't remember who it was though.
