It has been written that 95% of the House of Representatives have signed the Norquist pledge to never raise taxes. Alex Leary writes in the Miami Herald:
"For more than 20 years, Grover Norquist has wielded a mystical power over Republicans, cultivating and enforcing a rigid anti-tax platform.".
Isn't it time that all Representatives, under oath, let the public know that they have or have not signed the oath which prevents them from following the original oath when they were sworn into office
Leary further writes: "He sits on the advisory board of GOProud, a gay group, and has courted Muslims, drawing whispers about his sexual orientation and open charges that he cozies up to extremists. “Bigots,” replies Norquist, whose wife is Muslim."
It is beyond my understanding how such a 'conflict of interest' has been allowed to continue in Congress. Who oversees ethics and doing the job of the House for which people were elected, how can this be tolerated?
