Solving the Reoccurring Government Shut Down!

Solving the Reoccurring Government Shut Down!

Bottom line... Government will not fix itself, i.e. no politician will ever find themselves in violation of the US Constitution, leaving We The People with the responsibility of actually fixing it:

  • We The Peoplewill have to fix this first.
    • We shall formally institute a non-political system to monitor US Constitutional Compliance
    • This non-political system must be given authority & power to truly effect change
  • Next will require further enumeration of the US Constitution to eliminate all wiggle room useful for nefarious interpretation.
  • Then severe & stringent consequences must be spelled out for all government members who violate the US Constitution in any manner by any mechanism for any reason.

 

Here is what Marlin & I propose to fix the dreaded “Government Shut Down”:

2.6 First order of business every year before any other business is accomplished is funding the government for the next fiscal year for all established requirements[11]. Failure to pass legislation funding our government within the first 20 business days of the first session shall require all congressional members to remain in session, ten hours per day and 6 days per week until such time as full funding is accomplished and fully enacted into law and no other business shall be accomplished except for extreme emergencies of war or extreme natural disasters.

2.6.1 No compensation beyond standard straight time shall be made or given to any congressional members including staffers during post 30 day period until full funding is fully enacted into law.

2.6.2 The government funding bill does not require presidential signature

2.6.2.1 Should the executive office disapprove, it shall file formal complaint to which congress who shall schedule to hear and consider the complaint.

2.6.2.2 Final resolution of complaint shall be subject to CCP review.

2.6.3 Failure to pass legislation funding our government within the first session shall require all pay and compensation for congress and their entire staff be frozen and with held until such time as legislation fully funding our government is enacted.

2.6.3.1 No compensation beyond standard straight time shall be made or given retroactively to any congressional members including staffers.

2.6.4 All departments funding to be considered and enacted separately and in sequence as follows:

2.6.4.1 1st DOD, Department of Defense

2.6.4.1.1 Minimum DOD funding shall be 1/10th of the current total federal budget.

2.6.4.2 2nd DOJ, Department of Justice

2.6.4.3 3rd DOE, Department of Energy

2.6.4.4 4th DHS, Department of Home Land Security, if and only if a department of Homeland Security exists.

2.6.4.5 Then all others in any order

2.6.5 Failure to fund government shall require it to operate without deficit spending and congress shall adjust government operating costs such that national defense is fully funded at 1/8th of the current total federal budget and all necessary operating cost cuts shall 1st come from all non essential programs 2nd from all social programs then followed by all government departments and operations of government but excluding our standing military, law enforcement and the judiciary.

2.6.6 If legislation is not completed within another 20 business days, all congressional members are required to return to their districts and for 10 business days to actively and publicly, via personally attended “town hall meetings”, bilaterally discuss all funding problems with their constituents. Upon return, congress shall continue in session until such time as full funding is legislated and enacted.

2.6.6.1 If upon return to the congressional session full funding is not achieved within 5 days; emergency funding for our standing military and its current external actions shall be maintained at the current level and all law enforcement and the judiciary and emergency service agencies shall be maintained at current levels and all other government operations to include social programs shall be frozen and halted.

2.6.6.2 If after an additional 10 business days from return, government funding legislation is not completed and enacted, all congress shall be dismissed from further congressional service and removed from the District of Columbia and all state executive branches shall provide that an emergency special election be held within 90 days to replace all congressional incumbents for cause of dereliction of sworn duty to the citizenry of the USA.

2.6.6.2.1 Newly elected congressional members shall serve out remainder of terms vacated.

2.6.6.2.2 All persons who were dismissed from or have previously served in congress are prohibited from running for elected office in this emergency election.

2.6.6.2.3 The federal executive branch shall continue to run the day to day operations of the USA without change and the CCP, with highest authority, in conjunction with the Supreme Court, of lesser authority, shall provide direct oversight of the executive branch until congress is again restored.
