Section 2
All Federal Legislators of the United States Congress will be chosen for four-year terms that coincide with presidential terms of office. Federal Legislators may serve for an unlimited number of 4-year terms. The election of Federal Legislators will occur on the first Tuesday of November. They will take office on January 20.
Section 3
Each state will have at least one Federal Representative under the system of Proportional Representation, and the District of Columbia will also have at least one Federal Representative.
Section 4
When vacancies in the Federal Legislature occur because of sickness, death, or resignation, the state political party of the legislator can pick a new Federal Legislator.
Section 5
The Federal Representatives shall elect one of their own members to be the Speaker of the House at the start of every new term. The elected Speaker of the House will choose the chairpersons for the established committees. The chairpersons, in turn, shall select a diverse group of committee members.
Section 6
The Federal Legislators (or Federal Representatives) will be allowed to try, impeach, and remove any high-leveled federal officer in the legislature, executive, and judicial branches of the federal government. Any officer impeached is also liable and subject to indictment, trial, judgment, and punishment, according to the law.
Section 7
Federal Legislators do not have to be present at the Capitol Building in Washington D.C. to vote on bills, unless the Speaker of the Congress deems it necessary.
All debates among Legislators who are present at the Capitol Building will be televised for public viewing, and Legislators not physically present can participate in the discussions and debates by telephone or Zoom Conference. This protocol will allow the citizens to be as equally informed as lawmakers on all the issues. All bills must be written by elected members of Congress, not lobbyists. All bills must deal with one issue only. Every lawmaker must read every bill in its entirety.
The best arguments for and against a bill must be expressed in writing from various opposing political parties, and they must be made available to the public at least two weeks before there is a vote on a bill. Citizens of a district may electronically register their vote on a particular bill, and Federal Legislators should wisely consider input from their constituents. Citizens input on every bill as to whether or not they favor or oppose something, must be made publicly known to the Federal Legislators and to other citizens.
Representatives who do not abide by the will of their constituents will probably be replaced during the next election.
