“Take the Senate Away From Voters”

That’s a MUST. It would be interesting to see what would happen if we could get that through Congress (or maybe bypass Congress, if needed). The state legislators would then be voting to enable themselves to select Senators. I think it just might pass.

Cust the salary of the Senate and all the perks.

Huh?

Why don’t you learn a little bit about the Congress and the Constitution before you start posting stuff like this.

The 17th Amendment to the Constitution of The United States provided for Senators to be elected by popular vote in each state.

Congress cannot “bypass” that. Nor would it even TRY to.

The 17th Amendment is what it is.
It will never be repealed or changed, at least not in this country.

I’m a realist. And as the saying goes:
“Reality is what it is. It is NOT what we believe it to be.”
