Use this E-mail Template to Contact YOUR Senators and Congressmen to Institute the "Congressional Reform Act of 2013"
1. No Tenure/No Pension
2.A Congressman/woman receives pay when they are in office, they receive no pay when not in office.
3.Congress (Past, Present, and Future)participates in Social Security.
4. 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.
5. Congress can purchase their own retirement plan, just as all Americans do.
6. Congress will no longer vote themselves a pay raise. Congressional pay will raise the lower of CPI or 3%.
7. Congress loses their current health care insurance and participates in the health care marketplace exchanges.
8. Congress must equally abide by the impose on the American people.
9. All contracts with past and present Congressmen/women are void 12/01/2013. The American people did not make these contracts with the Congressmen/women.
I believe this may have been suggested by Warren Buffet as a way to lower the debt. Either way I think it's a great proposal. I realize the Congress getting paid is in the constitution so if a constitutional amendment is called for, so be it.
Please let me know at your earliest convenience where you stand on this proposal.
Thank you for your great service in the past.
