Has Anyone Here Ever Proposed a An Idea For A Bill |
|
....Has anyone here ever proposed a thought for some legislation/bill to their US Senator or H-of-Rep or I guess better said a draft/outline of something you would like to see passed as a bill in Washington D.C.
I have some thoughts of the way employers gather resumes that I think needs some regulation. I just want to know the process.
Your help is greatly appreciated.

4. I proposed a bill to my state rep a couple of months ago |
|
It was an idea that any politician who is convicted of a crime that involves corruption should have to pay back the tax payers by doing community service. It came from the Blago thing. I don't want to see him sitting in jail, that serves no one. I would rather see him on the side of the expressway picking up trash, in the State house painting walls and so and so on. I haven't heard anything about it, and I'm not really expecting anything really.

I called her office asked for an appointment, and just explained by idea from memory. That is usually how I do things, she wrote a few notes. That could be the reason I haven't heard anything from her, but if it gave her an idea, its worth it.
