Living in up in New England, it's preferable to avoid conversations about politics or religion. Often becuase you'd rather not get a cup of hot or cold beverage potentially poured out on ya!
Well, it's high time that citizens are given enough time to preview bills before they become law! Lawmakers seem to conveniently draw up bills and then vote them into law BEFORE their representated constituency even gets a chance to know what in the heck is being enacted!
ReadtheBill.org, a nonprofit group promoting transparent lawmaking, refers to bills posted online at the last minute as Mystery Bills. So the organization has assumed the alternated identity: Mystery Busters.
The Mysterey Busters launched their first attack last month and have promised to publish a list of mystery bills every week that Congress is in session.
PLEASE take action and help the Mystery Busters persuade Congress to post legislation 72 hours before floor consideration by going here: http://action.readthebill.org/campaign.jsp?campaign_KEY=2634
