NOTE: You can also call Rep. Dave Weldon (R-FL) at 202-225-3671 (he's the Chairman of the subcommittee where H.R. 2373 is now stuck), and ask him to speed the bill along to get it to the House floor for a vote. And be sure to forward this email to everyone you know that would like to see a practical solution implemented to help reduce the size and scope of our bloated federal bureaucracy. Thank you!

The Endangered Species Act ran out years ago, yet federal agencies are still using it to commit government abuse of landowners.

Will the Brady-Turner, "Abolishment of Obsolete Agencies and Federal Sunset Act of 2001 (H.R. 2373)" correct this?

This would require them to justify their existence to taxpayers and Congress, or face elimination.

Not a good idea, especially with the LEO type agencies (which it seems all of them are now). The only way they could justify their continued existence, is to make sure some more Americans die, either from government terrorism or from non-government terrorism.

A better way might be to abolish them first, then let the voters and congress decide if and when such dangerous domestic troops are ever needed again.

Can we start with the department of education?

I think the bill should also include some provision automatically reducing income taxes by the amount saved, so that we don't end up with fewer agencies, but owing just as much in taxes.

This is a great step in the right direction, and I would add one more thing to it.

First we have to defeat every Rat up for re election in Bush states this November. Then in 2003, Da$$hole can be aborted from his little Napoleon role.

No bill of value like this bill will ever even be voted on as long as Da$$hole controls the senate. He has to be aborted this November by defeating his rat buddies up for re election in Bush States. Then in 2003, he becomes just a petty vile mouth midget in the senate with zero power.

Besides this bill, we need a bill that requires every civil service employee from GS 7 up, to submit a letter of resignation to the new president. These letters are valid for as long as that president is our president. This will allow the president to immediately clean house in the federal departments staffed with life long/card carrying rats.

These life long civil service rats cause continuous problems for republican presidents from the day they are sworn in until their term expires. The ability to activate the resignation letters of about 100,000 rats the day a president is sworn in would reduce the sabotage these leftist do to our country. It would send a loud and clear message to the surviving rats to shape up, or they will be cleared out with the first trash.

The bill would have to have a special rider to have all civil service employees GS7 or higher to submit their resignations to President Bush as soon as he signed the bill. Then, he could clear the decks of socialists, communists, pink panty wearing Political Correctness lifers and others who hate America.

We need to defeat every rat running for the senate or re election in Bush States. That will allow the flushing of these rats and their midget Da$$hole will be midget minority fairy/elf!

Then, we can see reform in government, lower taxes, drilling in Alaska and many other good things for America!

Defeat the rats running for the senate in Bush States~!

Question for any one, is this only for agencies or for Deparments as well?

If both, great, fantastic, grand.

If the former, it's a start.

They should also have to provide evidence that their efforts aren't duplicated in another useless agency. If a duplication of services exist, pull the plug. Blackbird.
