    Congressional reform act of 2012 will this be on the ballot?
    Is the Congressional Reform Act of 2012 an official document and will it be on the ballot for citizens to vote on?

    No... don't expect to see it there either. None of them want to give up the cushy benefits they have voted themselves over the years. THey are after all special and we are not... didn't they send that memo out?

    No! No? Why not?
    Can any member of congress give US an honest answer as to why not?
    It doesn't appear that you are really working for US the people, you are
    Working hard for YOU , Yourselves and YOUR Future, Not Ours!
    Anyone??

    When was the last time you saw a referrendum on a Federal ballot? Answer: never.

    Although many states have provision for referrendum, the U.S. government does not.

    If you are angry about this act I suggest that you vote against all representatives and senators who voted for it. And of course also be sure to vote against the president who signed it.
