H. Res. 554 is a bill sponsored by one Republican and one Democrat and would require that all non-emergency proposed federal legislation be posted 72 hours on the Internet, prior to any Congressional debate. As I have been saying to clients for years, don’t sign contracts without reading them — and it certainly makes sense that your elected representatives should not vote on legislation that they haven’t had an opportunity to read. If this makes sense to you, take a moment to contact your elected representatives and voice your support for H. Res. 554. You can find more information at http://readthebill.org/.
