Let’s just hope this doesn’t simply become and empty ritual that certain parties voted for to make themselves look good without actually having to DO anything substantive.

As "stunts" or "gimmicks" go it's pretty far down on the list, IMHO. Far more interesting is the demand that each new piece of legislation cite Constitutional authority. "I won" isn't going to cut it.
Stopped reading here most definitely. Don't need to consider anything further!
The Constitution is an active contract between the People and the Government.
Period.
See tagline.
Immediately after 9/11/2001 when tens of millions of Americans proudly showed the Flag I recall liberal / progressive Americans rejecting the Flag because it was "too Republican."
The 1960s Marxist-Alinsky campus/street revolutionary rabble and their ideological issue (children)-cum-Rat Party (formerly the traditional, patriotic Democratic Party) DO IN FACT reject our Constitution, Flag, and everything about America that they feeeeeeeeeeeel is "too Republican" and that is of course everything about our founding, heritage, patriotism.. everything.
Symptom of a diseased mind, right there.
INPUT REJECTED.
Speaking about/to our Constitution, I have a gnawing feeling that it is many times wrongly represented/referenced/thought as to ‘America’. Our Constitutution was written and dedicated for the ‘UNITED STATES’ of America.It doesn’t bother me to talk about ‘America’ as we are part of a distinct Continent but when it comes to governance I want to think of and speak to the ‘UNITED STATES’. Our Constitution was intended to be unique and it serve the ‘UNITED STATES’.We must keep it as such.

It is a modern, common error to interpret the necessary and proper clause as carte blanche to do whatever Congress wishes. As part of the original Constitution, before the Bill of Rights were added, it was regarded a bulwark to confine the reach of government to the enumerated powers.
I'd say the real challenge would be to find constitutional support for the government to control breast feeding.
