28th Amendment



An email sent to me. It's actually has some very great points.








'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 ".'
