[QUOTE="TerryMiller, post: 2041225, member: 7900"] [FONT=Georgia][SIZE=3]I'll take his idea one step further, in addition to itemizing all spending, it would also be nice if it were illegal for an "amendment" to be added to a bill that DID NOT related directly to the bill to which it was attached. More than once, both state and federal "legislators" have tried to pass a bill that may have been voted down or never got out of committee. Once it was "dead," they want to "reintroduce" it into another bill as an amendment. Make them do a up or down vote and if it fails or doesn't have merit to become a bill going to the full house and senate, then let it die immediately and wait until another year.[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
