HOW TO KILL A BILL

How to Kill a Bill: Five Tips for Keeping Bad Legislation from Getting Passed by Roberto Gutierrez | Jan 2, 2019 Photo by Schoolhouse Rock! via ABC Bad bills are introduced in state legislatures nearly every day. Whether in a state house or in the halls of Congress, lawmakers regularly write bills that restrict freedom, raise taxes and enact harmful regulations. Often, special interests spend significant time and money trying to get these bad bills passed. But if you know the right techniques, you can take them on – and win. Here are some tips and tricks from our Legislative Training program that you can use to make sure bad bills never become law. Get Out in Front The best time to kill a bill is before it even sees the light of day. If you know the issues lawmakers are planning to tackle during a legislative session, you can shape the discussion about the issue before there’s even a bill. A preemptive strike is often enough to stop harmful legislation. By generating a lot of opposition to the idea, you can keep lawmakers from even submitting a bad bill. Know the Process It’s important to know the path a bill takes once it’s filed—what committees it needs to be approved by, what procedures the legislature takes and how the legislature votes. Your state website likely has information on how the process works. Get Your Ducks in a Row Take time to map out a potential coalition before engaging in the fight. Ask yourself what other groups would care about the issue or who else might be harmed. If you’re fighting a corporate welfare bill that would hand out taxpayer dollars and free land to a big, out-of-state corporation, there are any number of potential allies. Environmental groups might care about the land use. Local businesses might be concerned about unfair treatment and competition. Families might care about misuse of their hard-earned tax-dollars. Workers might be concerned about increased congestion. You don’t have to agree on every issue, but you can still work together to defeat a bad idea. Rally the Troops There are countless ways your fellow activists can join the fight, from letters to the editor to office visits to patch-through phone banks. Organize your team and get to work! Before you get started, make sure all of your activists are on the same page when it comes to messaging and tactics. Presenting a unified message will make you far more effective. Committee hearings are a great place for you to show lawmakers the size of the opposition to their bad bill. Pack the hearing with as many allies as you can. If possible, wear custom t-shirts and bring signs. Don’t forget to have as many people as possible sign up to speak, too. Effective public testimo ny for tips on how to make your point. At the end of the day, remember that it doesn’t take a massive army of volunteers and hundreds of thousands of dollars to make a difference. All you need is a small group of passionate people who care deeply about the issue and are willing to put the work in.

A BILL: To define the dollar as a fixed weight of gold. 1. Findings: Congress finds the following: (1) The United States dollar has lost 30 percent of its purchasing power since 2000, and 96 percent of its purchasing power since the end of the gold standard in 1913 (the year the non-governmental, privately-owned Federal Reserve was created in the U.S., and given free reign over America’s money supply. In 1971, U.S. President Richard “Tricky Dick” Nixon took America completely off the gold-standard, thus enabling the Fed’s fiatcurrency to become widespread, unchecked, and menacing). (2) Under the Federal Reserve’s 2 percent inflation objective, the dollar loses half of its purchasing power every generation, or every 35 years. (3) American families need long-term price stability to meet their household spending needs, save money, and plan for retirement. (4) The Federal Reserve policy of long-term inflation has made American manufacturing uncompetitive, raising the cost of United States manufactured goods by more than 40 percent since 2000, compared to less than 20 percent in Germany and France. (5) Between 2000 and 2010, United States manufacturing employment shrunk by onethird after holding steady for 30 years at nearly 20,000,000 jobs. (6) The American economy needs a stable dollar, fixed exchange rates, and money supply controlled by the market, not the government. (7) The gold standard puts control of the money supply with the market instead of the Federal Reserve. (8) The gold standard means legal tender defined by and convertible into a certain quantity of gold. (9) Under the gold standard through 1913 the United States economy grew at an annual average of four percent, one-third larger than the growth rate since then and twice the level since 2000. (10) The international gold exchange standard from 1914 to 1971 did not provide for a United States dollar convertible into gold, and therefore helped cause the Great Depression and stagflation. (11) The Federal Reserve’s trickle down policy of expanding the money supply with no demand for it has enriched the owners of financial assets but endangered the jobs, wages, and savings of blue collar workers. (12) Restoring American middle-class prosperity requires change in monetary policy authorized to Congress in Article I, Section 8, Clause 5 of the Constitution. 2. Define the dollar in terms of gold: Effective 30 months after the date of enactment of this Act — (1) The Secretary of the U.S. Treasury (in this Act referred to as the Secretary) shall define the dollar in terms of a fixed weight of gold, based on that day’s closing market price of gold; and . . . (2) Federal Reserve Banks shall make Federal Reserve notes (dollars with a new design) exchangeable with gold at the statutory gold definition of the dollar. 3. Disclosure of Holding: During the 30-month period following the date of enactment of this Act, the United States Government shall take timely and reasonable steps to disclose all of its holdings of gold, together with a contemporaneous report of any United States governmental purchases or sales, thus enhancing the ability of the market and of market participants to arrive at the fixed dollar-gold parity in an orderly fashion.
