The 28th Amendment, 35 States and Counting

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution: "Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States”.

Why is this important?

Our "Public Servants" in Congress have voted to exempt themselves from the laws that govern the rest of us, including prosecution for sexual harassment, Healthcare Reform, repayment of student loans, and they receive full retirement pay after only one term. It's time to hold us all accountable equally, and embrace our Congressional reps as one of us again. Please pass along to 20 folks today. Make a difference.
