Payroll Reduction for Congress
» KEY POINTS Congress needs a regular schedule that limits their days, times, and hours that they can work so that speech and rules cannot be used as weapons. While debating and voting, Congress should be able to use any available technology so as not to have a need to always be in Washington, DC.
