"Congress MUST sign on to this or no one should"

The Fourteenth amendment includes the following passage:

"nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws"

This means that any law applies to everyone equally, there can be no "exceptions", or "special treatments" for members of Congress or the unions, etc. Any plan that includes special treatment for some groups, or exclusions for others is unconstitutional.

“No one” doesn’t have choice.
Have you read the bill?
