Require a Mandatory 48 Hour Review Period for All Bills to be Voted On

Created by J.B. on January 04, 2013

Any and all bills presented to Congress for a vote must be presented to each and every member of Congress a minimum of 48 hours prior to a vote being taken.

Bills being presented to the members to vote on hours or sometimes minutes before the vote is to be taken, as has happened in the past, in a way to get “pork” rammed through Congress does not allow all members of Congress to fulfill their commitment to their constituents as they have sworn to do, nor allow taxpayers to voice their opinion on proposed bills that directly affect them.

If company decisions were made in the private sector the way they have been in Congress without giving enough time or thought as to the outcome, the business would never survive.
