A NEW AMENDMENT TO THE US CONSTITUTION

Governors of 35 states have filed suit against the Federal Government for imposing unlawful burdens upon them. It only takes 38 (of the 50) States to convene a Constitutional Convention.
This will take less than thirty seconds to read.

The new 28th Amendment is an idea that we should address.
For too long Americans have been too complacent about the workings of our Congress.  Many citizens have no idea that members of Congress can retire with the same pay, $165,200 per year, FOR LIFE, after only one term.

AND 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 corruption was to exempt themselves from the Healthcare Reform... in all of its forms. 

Somehow, that doesn't seem logical. We should not have an elite that is above and apart from the law. I truly don't care if they are Democrats, Republicans, Libertarians, Greens, Independents, Communists, Nazis or Whatever. This elitist self-serving above the law mentality must stop. And we can't expect them to impose this upon themselves. We must do it for them, and for us.

COPY the text of this post and email it to 20 people, or re-post it on your blog, in three weeks, most people in The United States of America will have the message. This is one proposal that really should be passed around.

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