Right, their stated function in the Constitution is to make Legislation. More than anything anymore, they bloviate and leave the rule making to the various Agencies and Commissions that they've empowered over the years through vague legislation. Instead of serving, they campaign 24/7 so that one day, they can get off the ride, join a Lobbyist firm, cash in for a 7 figure salary and sell the rest of us down the river. The Legislative Branch isn't doing its job, and hasn't for a while.
