Pass the 28th Ammendment!

This morning I read an email that touched on a political subject that get's my dander up! (Of course what political subject doesn't get ones dander up?) I am posting it here because everyone needs to be aware of this and hopefully take action. If you value what is fair...tell everyone you know to vote for passing the 28th Ammendment!

******************************************************

Governors of 35 states have already filed suit against the Federal Government for imposing unlawful burdens upon them. It only takes 38 of the 50 States to convene a Constitutional Convention.

For too long we have been complacent about the workings of Congress. Many citizens have no idea that members of Congress can retire with the same pay after only one term, that they don't pay into social security, and that they specifically exempted themselves from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any fear of prosecution for sexual harrasment) while ordinary citizens must live under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare Reform.

The propsed Amendment reads as follows:

"Congress shall make no laws that apply to the citizens of the United States that does not equally apply to the Senator's and/or Representatives; Congress shall make no laws that apply to the Senator's and/or Representatives that does not equally apply to the citizens of the United States."

I don't care if you are Democrat or Republican...this self-serving elitist behavior must stop. It's time to take action!
