Oral reading of the bills is what Downsize DC's "Read the Bills Act" would require -- and reducing the amount of legislation to what is absolutely necessary is absolutely necessary for the rest of us to get Congress out of our hair so we have a life to get on with.
Downsize DC has had a proposal on the table for quite some time: Read The Bills Act. It would require every member of congress to sign an affidavit that they have read the bill before they vote for it (they don't have to read it if they vote against it).
