The Cellar - View Single Post - Congress Refuses to Read Bills Before Voting

I want them to write a bill that forces them to write bills that ONLY PERTAIN to the subject at hand. No more off-topic legislation being slipped in at the last minute that has nothing to do with the original bill. AND they should be written in plain, concise language that anyone can understand, and be as brief as possible while still covering everything completely. No more subterfuge. There is no reason why a bill should have to be 1000+ pages. Most novels aren't that long.
