Majority In Senate Breaks Oath To Uphold Constitution

The Senate voted to give residents of the District of Columbia a vote in the House of Representatives.

This is an easy one folks. There are also easy ways to fix the problem without treading on the constitution, but the solutions either involve a constitutional amendment or allowing the districts residents to become citizens of one of the surrounding states.

They betray their oaths all the time, but this one may be more obvious to people than, say the stimulus plan. Since congress does unconstitutional things all the time, most folks merely think it's unwise or blink at the sheer scale of recent happenings. But this is a change where violating the constitution ought to be obvious.

Of course, I thought the violation was obvious with regards to practically every campaign finance law out there, so what do I know?
