“The Constitution is not an instrument for the  government to restrain the people, it is an instrument for the  people to restrain the government - lest it come to dominate our  lives and interests”.

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.    No Tenure / No  Pension.  
    A  Congressman collects a salary while in  office and receives no pay when they are out of  office.  
   
2.    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.  It may not be used  for any other purpose.

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

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

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

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

7. All  contracts with past and present Congressmen are  void effective 1/1/12. 
   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.
