K Street and the Bureaucracy already do all of their work, except for posturing in front of the Cameras and getting re-elected and re-elected.
You got it! Not much real work is done on Capitol Hill. The lobbyists and lawyers on K Street and think tanks do pretty much all the legislation and leave the preparation of meaningless resolutions to the congressional staff.
Congress also has the Congressional Research Service (housed in the Library of Congress) to do research and other chores for it. Its no wonder they never want to leave.
