Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution:




Third page of Constitution of the United StatesImage via Wikipedia
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 must not have an elite class that is above the law. I truly don't care if they are Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever. 

The self-serving must stop. 

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution:

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