   Comments: These bills should be broken down so they are easily digested and can be completely understood. They need to be read by the Congressmen and not their aids. Come on -Congressmen and Senators earn your pay and do your job we entrust you with!

   Comments: Quote of the Day: "If every member pledged to not vote for it (the health care bill) if they hadn’t read it in its entirety, I think we would have very few votes." -- Senator Steny Hoyer, House Majority Leader

   Comments: Not only does Congress need to READ each and every bill in its entirety; they need to STOP playing games by hiring "speed readers" to read the bills, just so they can say it was read. WE THE PEOPLE are a lot smarter than Congress gives us credit for, and we are going to hold them accountable!

    Comments: I highly support the idea, but I think I would put the limit of pages higher, say, at 50. Ten will probably look too ridiculously short to be considered plausible.

    Comments: Great idea. I sincerely hope that it works. Every bill before the House and Senate should, as a matter of course be read, before debate on it begins.
