U.S. Constitution – 2019 – Post #4
What is Article I, Section 4 of the U.S. Constitution?
My two cents, but please share yours:
Article. I.
Section. 4.
The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations, except as to the Places of chusing Senators.
The Congress shall assemble at least once in every Year, and such Meeting shall be on the first Monday in December, unless they shall by Law appoint a different Day.

Can we go back to meeting ONLY on the first Monday in December? They couldn’t cause so much trouble meeting only one day a year.

Yes, David. Or perhaps they could meet the way our state representatives do here in Texas, for a very limited time. Cheers, Ashley
