Thread: How would one go about requesting more reasonable parameters on all proposed bills in Congress?

Such as limiting the number of pages and mandating a required amount of time for reading proposed bills before any vote can take place?

Simple Read the 700 pages before Passing a Bill, but Leadership in Congress doesn't Listen.

Start by contacting the office of your current representative with that idea. Push for a reply & follow up. Then try your two Senators.

I am sure there are also some web groups that think similarly.

Easy.

1. Draft the bill.

2. Convince a member of Congress to introduce the bill

3. LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY to get the Committee on House Administration to markup the bill to the House floor.

9. LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY to prevent amendments from damaging the integrity of your bill.

10. LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY to convince at least 60 members of the Senate NOT to filibuster your bill.

11. LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY LOBBY to convince 51 members of the Senate to vote for the bill.
