Reducing the cost of Congress
Demand that Congress pay as much attention to reducing its own expenses as it is to expenses in the administrative branch of government. Provide any citizen requesting it with a detailed plan for reducing the cost of Congress, that includes objectives, milestones, deliverables, schedule and anticipated savings.
Why is this important?
Congress has been identifying government organizations and programs that they think are too expensive, but I haven't heard a word about Congress's attempt to reduce the cost of Congress. I've sent emails twice to Maine Senators and the rep from this part of Maine, asking for a copy of a detailed plan, with objectives, milestones, deliverables, schedule, and anticipated savings, and got nothing back.
