Anyone is welcome to jump in...


As for clarification... Do the representatives not vote when deciding such things? Are those votes not won or lost based on a majority? I believe they do and I believe they are.


Here's one example, the Right to Free Speech. Despite constitutional language specifically forbidding Congress from passing laws that abridge the freedom of speech, Congress has, nevertheless, passed such laws. The most obvious of which are enforced by the FCC.


Just in case Congress doesn't know the definition of the word:


Abridge: to reduce in scope : diminish <attempts to abridge the right of free speech>
