Create the 'Equality of Congressional Services Act'

Created by D.F. on October 02, 2011

1.Congress collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office, except if their tenure exceeds 12 years of public service in congress and as determined by Congress.
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.
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 (Medicaid & Medicare)
