Ending 'Omnibus Bills': One Law, One Subject

This proposed law aims to simplify the legislative process by requiring each new bill to address only one topic. This makes it easier for citizens to understand what legal changes are being introduced, without hidden provisions in lengthy documents. If a bill violates this rule, parts or the entire bill could be voided, increasing transparency and accountability.
Key points
Each new bill or joint resolution must cover only one clearly defined subject.
The title of a bill must accurately describe its content to avoid ambiguity.
Budget-related provisions cannot include unrelated legal changes.
Citizens and Members of Congress will have the right to challenge bills that do not meet these new transparency requirements.
