Politicians should do their best to serve the people they were elected to serve, writes TomJoyceSports. If someone cannot or chooses not to do that, he or she should resign. RestoringAmerica
A politician can refuse to show up to committee meetings for no reason at all. A 2014found that many members of the House missed more than two-thirds of their committee meetings. Of course, if someone stops showing up to business meetings in the private sector, their employer would probably fire them!
In politics, as long as someone wins an election to do a certain task, he or she can fail to do that task but nevertheless keep the job. Massachusetts Auditor Suzanne Bump is a great example. In Massachusetts, the auditor must audit 210 state government departments every three years. However, a 2019found that nearly one-fourth of state entities had not been audited in more than three years.
Politicians should do their best to serve the people they were elected to serve. If someone cannot or chooses not to do that, he or she should resign. Voters should not have to wait for an election to make their right to better government heard.
