Proposed 28th Amendment
Note: This is a letter
that has been floating around on the Internet, in one form or another,
for quite a while. I’ve gotten it several times, so I’m posting it as
“Name Withheld,” but this is the first one to mention the Fox Story on
student loans. I HAVE NOT VERIFIED THIS, nor have I verified the other
statements noted below.
That said, the last
paragraph is what it’s about. Read the letter and, if you agree, copy
the link below and send it to everyone on your list.

No one has been able to explain why young men and women serve in the
U.S.
Military for 20 years, risking their lives protecting freedom, and only
get
50% of their pay while politicians hold their political positions in the
safe confines of the capital, protected by these same men and women, and
receive full pay retirement after serving one term. It just does not
make
any sense.
On Monday, FOX news learned that the staffers of Congress family
members are
exempt from having to pay back student loans. This will get national
attention if other news networks will broadcast it. When you add this
to the
below, just where will all of it stop?
35 States filed lawsuits against the Federal Government
Governors of 35 states have 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..
This will take less than thirty seconds to read. If you agree, please
pass
it on.
This is an idea that we should address.
For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress.
Many citizens had no idea that members of Congress could retire with the
same pay after only one term, that they specifically exempted themselves
from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any
fear
of prosecution for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must live
under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare
Reform... in all of its forms. Somehow, that doesn’t seem logical. We
do not
have an elite that is above the law. I truly don’t care if they are
Democrat, Republican, Independent or whatever. The self-serving must
stop.
If each person that receives this will forward it on to 20 people, in
three
days, most people in The United States of America will have the message.
This is one proposal that really should be passed around..
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.”
You are one of my 20.
