Letters to Lamar: Balanced Budget Amendment.

Dear Congressman Smith:

Are you FOR or AGAINST a balanced budget amendment to the U.S. Constitution?

Please feel free to explain your answer all you like. In particular, if you are FOR a balanced budget amendment, please send me the language of your proposed amendment or at least outline how you would structure the amendment.

Thank you in advance for your candid and thorough answer.

Regards,
luridtransom

Charlie Gonzalez says get the F out.

luridtransom directed the FOR/AGAINST inquiry to Rep. Charlie Gonzalez regarding the balanced budget amendment. (See inquiry sent to Rep. Lamar Smith.) Because you're ignorant I'll tell you Charlie Gonzalez is the U.S. Congressman for the 20th District of Texas. He's a Democrat.

Upon submission of inquiry, Rep. Gonzalez's webtron says: "Regrettably, I am unable to reply to any email from constituents outside of the 20th District of Texas."

luridtransom's corporate HQ is outside the 20th. If you, brave reader, live in the 20th, ask Rep. Gonzalez what his position is on a balanced budget amendment. America deserves to know.
