“Congress needs to be decentralized. With today’s technology, there’s no reason for them to be in Wash, DC.”
I’ve maintained that theory for a long time. They need to stay in their districts, AVAILABLE to the people they represent; in the environment of the area they represent.
They could convene in DC once or twice a year, that should be enough.
There would be (I think) fewer “under the table” deals, less bickering, and less straying from their campaign promises by having to answer to their constituents, locally.
It would present quite a challenge for those over paid lobbyists, as well.
Do it!
YES...I’ve said the same for a long time. Technology today means they can VOTE from ANYWHERE!
And, I’m hoping President Trump starts encouraging this.
And, FrankR, your proposal gets us back closer to the ‘part time’ legislature envisioned by the Founders.
Sounds good, to me.
