[edit] Welcome to WikiCongress

Imagine if "We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union" created a WikiCongress, to act as a people-partisan "think tank" to propose new legislation. Would the interests of the American people be more fairly represented than the interests of Special Interests? This is the experiment that begins here at WikiCongress.

WikiCongress has two goals:

1. To introduce legislative ideas that may ultimately be taken up by Congress.
2. To educate people about existing legislation currently in Congress.

Therefore educators are very welcome to introduce their students to aspects of the legislative process by using this site. It should be noted however that WikiCongress has its own legislative rules that differ from the standard rules of congress.

Since WikiCongress is just underway, help is needed in the development of this site!
