Copied from an email I received:

Congressional Reform Act of 2010

1. Term Limits.

12 years only, one of the possible options below..

A. Two Six-year Senate terms

B. Six Two-year House terms

C. One Six-year Senate term and three Two-Year House terms

2. No Tenure / No Pension.

A Congressman collects a salary while in office and receives no pay when they are out of office.

3. Congress (past, present & future) participates in Social Security.

All funds in the Congressional retirement fund move to the Social Security system immediately. All future funds flow into the Social Security system, and Congress participates with the American people.

4. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.

5. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will rise by the lower of CPI or 3%.

6. Congress loses their current health care system and participates in the same health care system as the American people.

7. Congress must equally abide by all laws they impose on the American people.

8. All contracts with past and present Congressmen are void effective 1/1/11.

The American people did not make this contract with Congressmen. Congressmen made all these contracts for themselves.

Serving in Congress is an honor, not a career. The Founding Fathers envisioned citizen legislators, serve your term(s), then go home and back to work.

I like all this...one thing i would change is term limits...12 years is far too long for a citizen legislature....6 is plenty, and its less time for possible corruption

I agree, no more then six years but 4 would be even better Term limits must be changed.ohmy.gif

It can happen if everyone gets out and votes!!!! Get the dems out of office.....

Well the whole problem will be getting any politician to vote for losing all these benefits.

I agree that the dems need to go for sure, but I believe most politicians are in for 1 thing and that is to get re-elected. Fortunately I believe we will be seeing a lot of new faces. We just need to watch and hold them accountable for their actions on each and every election day.
