This sounds nice but it doesnt work. Americans widely despise congress but like their own representative. Telling voters "make your representative accountable" will not fix anything. I would like for congress to be an effective body that is able to pass laws that are widely popular, but we can all see that that just is not the reality we are working with.
- KevinMS 2y agoMaybe I'm old fashioned but I would like my elected officials who are hired to write the laws to actually write the laws.
- HDThoreaun 2y agoI would too. But theyre not doing it. Now what? Americans have been trying to fix congress since the 90s and it has only gotten worse. Why do you think theyll suddenly decide to start doing their jobs now?
