Why would anyone ever give up her job and become a Congress person with
these rules? Lee Loe

Subject: Amendment to the Constitution
I have totally cleaned this e-mail from all  other names, sending it to you
in hopes you will keep it going and keep it clean.  This is something I will
fight for and  I hope you all read it all the way through.  You will be glad
you did. 

The 26th amendment (granting the right to vote for 18 year-olds) took only
3 months & 8 days to be  ratified! Why?  Simple!  The people  demanded it. 
That was in 1971...before computers, before e-mail, before cell phones,
etc. 
  
Of  the 27 amendments to the Constitution, seven (7) took 1 year or less to
become the law of the  land...all because of public  pressure. 

I'm asking each addressee to forward this email to a minimum of twenty
people on their address list;  in  turn ask each of those to do likewise. 
  
In three days, most people in The United States of America will have the
message.  This is one  idea that really should be passed  around.

Congressional Reform Act of  2011 

1.  Term  Limits.
  12 years only, one of the possible options  below..
      A. Two Six-year Senate terms
       B. Six Two-year House terms
       C. One Six-year Senate term and three Two-Year House  terms 
  
2.   No Tenure / No  Pension.
   A  Congressman collects a salary while in office and  receives no pay
when they are out of  office.  
  
3.   Congress (past, present & future) participates  in Social  Security.
All  funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to  the Social Security
system immediately.  All  future funds flow into the Social Security
system,  and Congress participates with the  American  people. 

4. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan,  just as all Americans
do. 

5. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise.  Congressional pay
will rise by the  lower of CPI or  3%. 

6. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the
same health care system as the  American  people. 

7. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American
people. 

8. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective
1/1/11.
   The  American people did not make this contract with  Congressmen.
Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves.   Serving  in Congress
is an honor, not a career.  The  Founding Fathers envisioned citizen
legislators, so  ours should serve their term(s), then go home and  back to
work.

If each person contacts a minimum of twenty people then  it will only take
three days for most people (in the  U.S. ) to receive the message.  Maybe it
is  time. 

THIS IS HOW YOU FIX CONGRESS!!!!! If  you agree with the above, pass it
on.   If not, just  delete 


You  are one of my 20+.
 Please keep it going.
