Require Congress to be subject to the same laws they hold everyone else bound to.

Created by E.S. on December 22, 2012

Far too often Congress passes laws regarding healthcare, civil liberties and criminal prosecution of insider trading that they themselves exempt themselves from these ramifications. They continuously sit on panels and pass laws and buy stocks based on this insider knowledge without fear of prosecution. Congress needs to be held to HIGHER standards than everyone else, not lower. If Congress passes laws affecting healthcare, they should be required to use the lowest quality plan available to general public complying with that plan. If they ban guns, they should have to give up personal security details or any other access to self defense that the general public would have no access to. Its time to send congress a message that they work for the US citizens, not the other way around!
