Act 8. Do or Die 

Election to Congress has become practically a guaranteed job for life. Something is dreadfully wrong when Congress's approval rating barely tops 10%, yet incumbents win re-election over 90% of the time! It's time that members of Congress showed some accountability.  

​

It's time for members of Congress to say "I will achieve results or step down!" 

​

Over half of the members of Congress don't even have written goals for what they want to accomplish during their term in office (according to a recent survey of members)!  Imagine instead if your Representative or Senator were to publicly announce something like this:

​

"I will step down from office at the end of 6 years if we, the Congress, cannot...

​

Reduce the national debt by 25%...

​

(or)

​

Cut teen pregnancies in half...

​

(or)

​

Pass a $1 trillion infrastructure bill to repair the nation's roads, bridges, railroads and airports...

​

(or)

​

Bring unemployment down to 4%...

​

(or)

​

Whatever concrete goal the member of Congress has the courage to commit to!
