Force the House or Senate to vote on a bill if the bill has a majority of the body as co-sponsors

Created by D.G. on May 16, 2013

Currently a bill can have a voting majority of the House or Senate as co-sponsors, which should mean that it would pass if voted on.

The Bill is then sent to a committee where a partisan majority in effect kills it by never letting it leave the committee.

I would like to see this committee be forced to send it up for a vote after a certain period of time.
