Upcoming Legislation

Compliments of The Patriot Post, here is some upcoming legislation that should interest you. I highly recommend you contact your Congresscritter about him/her supporting these proposals. They are, after all, supposed to be representing and working for YOU! If you don't make your voice heard and your wishes known, then you have no excuse for grousing when they start doing even stupider and more oppressive stuff than they normally would.



Rep. Steve King (R-IA) seeks co-sponsors for his Sunlight Act (HR 170), which would require greater transparency in the legislative process.

Rep. Bob Goodlatte (R-VA) will introduce the Tax Code Termination Act, which would sunset the entire federal tax code in 2010 and require the implementation of an entirely new code. (If only!)

Rep. John Carter (R-TX) introduced legislation to prevent the Social Security Administration from paying benefits on unauthorized or illegal work.

Rep. Joe Wilson (R-SC) introduced the Adoption Tax Relief Guarantee Act, which would make permanent the $10,000 child-adoption tax credit, set to expire in 2010.
