Stupid strawman.
Congress’ job is minding the business of the federal government. Little of what congress does these days falls into that category, and the courts are our only avenue of redress when congress exceeds its bounds. We do not have the power to direct the votes of our “representatives.”

And editor-surveyor decides what that business should be. Got it.
