I’ve had the thought several times that the SCOTUS should meet not in DC, but somewhere more, shall we say, down to earth.

I would nominate Franklin CO, VA. but they may come to enjoy the local “spirits” too much.

Somewhere more remote, but not in a state with legal wildwood weed.

The middle of the Mojave desert?
A mountain top in very rural New Mexico?
A small kansas town with only a convenience store and grain storage facilities?

Let them learn what fly over country looks like, up close and personal.

The very first bill my congressman proposed when he went to Washington was that Representatives spend at least 20 days of every month in their districts. It went to committee and was never heard from again.

If it were up to me representatives and senators would spend 90 days total in Washington and would wear ankle bracelets to make sure they were where they belong the rest of the time. If they need to go overseas for an official reason the senators would have to take it up with the full state legislature and US reps would take it up with the state senators and representatives who represent the US rap’s district.
