eliminate lifetime congressional retirement benefits and include ALL elected officials in Affordable Care Act.

Created by G.W. on November 15, 2012

Pubic servitude is an honor, not a career, it should be treated as such. No other sector of industry or business provides an individual a lifetime of support for a few years of service; often-times this public service is only 2 years.
Former lawmakers should have to work for a living just like the rest of average Americans do. We rely on Social Security to supplement our retirement; so should they.

Affordable Care Act; if the American people are required to participate, so should Congress. No one should be above or exempted from the requirements imposed on the rest of us.

To require compliance with this petition would be a first step in restoring fiscal responsibility on the part of congressional members. In other words, don't just talk the talk; but rather, walk the walk.
