To: The United States House of Representatives and The United States Senate
Take away Deluxe Health Care from Congress
WHEREAS, our dysfunctional Congress has become an arena for senseless political grandstanding instead of dealing the the Peoples' business, and
WHEREAS, many of our politicians live in a bubble of sycophantic staff and special privileges from special interests,
THEREFORE, we now resolve to take away any Federally-provided health care benefits and services that inure to the members of the Senate and the House of Representatives and their families as a result of their membership therein,
AND FURTHER, we resolve to refuse to pay any reimbursement for health care services, including medical, dental, vision, mental health, substance abuse, or any other such services rendered to Members of the Senate or House or their families.

Why is this important?
I think our Senators and Representatives are so dysfunctional that they don't deserve to have most of the benefits we pay for them to enjoy: pensions, budgets, health care. Let's take away their health care so they can begin to understand how things are outside the bubble they live in.
