The affordable care act would have been killed under that and replaced with nothing.
While in principle checking in on laws seems nice, a mandatory review deadline or it goes away would not be a viable solution in our current political climate.
But even in a more ideal climate, it seems that Congress would be tied up with the reviews and have no time to actually address new or contemporary issues.
Perhaps if it was structured so that a small percentage of laws were randomly selected and some check was enacted so that a minority couldn’t easily kill the law.

Overwhelming congress gives states more impetus to solve their own problems instead of let the federal government be so bloated.
