Proposed 28th Amendment

From a recent email chain letter-

For too long we have been too complacent about the workings of Congress. Many citizens had no idea that members of Congress could retire with the same pay after only one term, that they didn't pay into Social Security, that they specifically exempted themselves from many of the laws they have passed (such as being exempt from any fear of prosecution for sexual harassment) while ordinary citizens must live under those laws. The latest is to exempt themselves from the Healthcare Reform that has just been passed...in all of its forms.

The proposed equal rights amendment looked good at first. Later, when we realized some pitfalls many changed their minds. It might be well to ask your congressman what he would have against this bill and find in what form it would work the way we really want (if the current form is not best).

Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution

"Congress shall make no law that applies to the citizens of the United States that does not apply equally to the Senators and/or Representatives; and, Congress shall make no law that applies to the Senators and/or Representatives that does not apply equally to the citizens of the United States ."

Any insights into this proposal would be appreciated.
