Mandate that Congress be required to work 5 days a week, 8 hours a day, 48 weeks a year. (4 weeks of vacation only!)

Created by E.C. on January 06, 2013

Congress gets nothing done because it rarely meets enough to be called a job. Congress should be mandated to do their job. Jobs are things a person goes to to make money. Jobs require time commitment and presence. It is time to mandate that Congress puts in a full work week, just like all the rest of us hard working Americans.
Perhaps if Congress had a time clock, was forced to show up every single day and do something, something might actually get done! No more three day work weeks, or month long breaks. If this is too hard for them, they should resign and let someone else do the peoples' business. Each and every one of them was HIRED to do a JOB.
