On the first day of the 104th Congress, the new Republican majority will
immediately pass the following major reforms, aimed at restoring the faith
and trust of the American people in their government:


a.. FIRST, require all laws that apply to the rest of the country also
apply equally to the Congress;
b.. SECOND, select a major, independent auditing firm to conduct a
comprehensive audit of Congress for waste, fraud or abuse;
c.. THIRD, cut the number of House committees, and cut committee staff by
one-third;
d.. FOURTH, limit the terms of all committee chairs;
e.. FIFTH, ban the casting of proxy votes in committee;
f.. SIXTH, require committee meetings to be open to the public;
g.. SEVENTH, require a three-fifths majority vote to pass a tax increase;
h.. EIGHTH, guarantee an honest accounting of our Federal Budget by
implementing zero base-line budgeting.
Thereafter, within the first 100 days of the 104th Congress, we shall bring
to the House Floor the following bills, each to be given full and open
debate, each to be given a clear and fair vote and each to be immediately
available this day for public inspection and scrutiny.

career politicians with citizen legislators. (Description)

Further, we will instruct the House Budget Committee to report to the floor
and we will work to enact additional budget savings, beyond the budget cuts
specifically included in the legislation described above, to ensure that the
Federal budget deficit will be less than it would have been without the
enactment of these bills.

Respecting the judgment of our fellow citizens as we seek their mandate for
reform, we hereby pledge our names to this Contract with America.

ALL of those bills were introduced an passed by the House. Un fortunitly
not all were passed by the Senate because of Dimocrat delaying tactics
