Vote Scheduled On The REINS Act - Contact Your Representative
Phil Kerpen, Contributing Author: In 2009, a Kentucky man named Lloyd Rogers handed his Congressman a piece of paper containing an idea that idea became the REINS Act, H.R. 367. The United States House of Representatives will vote on it this Thursday.
Rogers started at the beginning of the Constitution. The very first thing after the famous "We the People" preamble is this:
"All legislative Powers herein granted shall be vested in a Congress of the United States, which shall consist of a Senate and House of Representatives." So how, Rogers asked his Congressman, could the EPA double his water bill without a vote of Congress? Didn't we elect you to make these decisions?
A wounded four-year Navy veteran, Rogers was a commander of both the Disabled American Veterans and the Veterans of Foreign Wars. His political hero is Thomas Jefferson.
His REINS Act would simply require that economically significant regulations go through the constitutionally prescribed process for passing laws: approval by the House and Senate, and a presidential signature or veto override.
Please spread the word about this important vote. We need a strong showing in this House vote to pressure the Senate to act on this bill that would force Congress to finally do the job it was elected do.
Click here NOW to urge your Member of Congress to vote YES on the REINS Act to stop Congress from outsourcing its job to bureaucrats and regulators!
