Congressional Reform Act of 2010 It is generally believed that political corruption & greed have consumed much of our government. Most politicians who have been elected to "serve" American Taxpaying Citizens, have lost this basic concept, originally created by our Founding Fathers, "Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career! Serve your term, then return home and back to work"! After one year of the current administration, it seems apparent most Liberal politicians, including the President, his Cabinet members and advisors, as well as the 111th Congress, appear interested only in promoting such Progressive agendas as redistributing the wealth and fundamentally changing the United States of America! To bring about needed Congressional reform, we need to have a national referendum, compelling our elected representatives in Congress to adhere to the vision of the Founding Fathers. It will contain 7 provisions, all of which would be strongly endorsed by those who originally drafted our Declaration of Independence, Bill of Rights and the U.S. Constitution. The Congressional Reform Act of 2010 should include the following specifications: 1) Term Limits: A Senator or Congress-person may serve for 12 years, in accordance with one of the following authorized options: a. Two six-year Senate terms; or b. Six two-year House terms; or c. One six-year Senate term and three two-year House terms 2) No tenure/no pension: All members of Congress shall collect a salary while in office and receive no pay after vacating that office. 3) All members of Congress shall participate in Social Security. All revenue in the Congressional Retirement Fund will immediately roll over into the Social Security Fund! All future Congressional Retirement revenues will flow directly into the Social Security System, as members of Congress participate right along with other qualified American retirees. 4) Members of Congress shall purchase their own retirement plans, just as all other Americans do. 5) Congress shall no longer vote for their own membership pay increases. Congressional salaries will increase in accordance with the Consumer Price Index, or 3%, whichever is lower. 6) Congress shall surrender their Senate Health Care Options and participate in the same category of Health Care Benefits as the rest of the American people. 7) Congress shall equally abide by all laws they pass and impose upon the rest of the American citizens. If positive corrective steps are not immediately taken, the Legislative Branch may continue to suffer increasing irrelevance until the Executive Branch discovers it can capably run the country alone and Congress is consumed by the Presidential Prime Directive: Redistribute the wealth of America. Now is the time to reform Congress! We need to immediately have proposals introduced in the Senate and House of Representatives, entitled "The Congressional Reform Act of 2010". __________________________________ Energy Reform + Healthcare Reform -> Congressional Reform
