Default Re: Non-mainstream ideas you would implement if President

[ QUOTE ]
1. I think I've mentioned this before but I would mandate a "conservation of legislation" rule. Any new piece of legislation introduced must be accompanied by the removal of an old piece of legislation from the books. I would pocket veto everything until they started complying.

2. I would put an end to ridiculous riders being attached to bills. Pocket veto of any bill with a rider.

I think this would be a good start.

You can't just pocket veto whatever. The pocket veto is only an option for bills sent to the president at the end of the session (IIRC).
