Will there have to be constitutional amendments saying1) bills must be clear and address only one topic
Random historical tidbit: the Constitution of the Confederacy (for non-Americans: the Southern states which seceded during our civil war) had this requirement built in (one subject per bill, and the subject must be clearly stated). It also had a line-item veto, and placed strict limits on federal spending.
Of course, it also had text permanently establishing slavery...
- fnid2 17y agoThey should have line-item vetoed that slavery bit and moved forward.
