The Federalist Society's Article I Initiative is focused on the critical issue of why the modern Congress is not functioning as the most powerful branch as envisioned by the Framers. In order to help engage new thought and discussion about the proper role of the Congress, the Initiative has just launched an exciting new writing contest aimed at younger* thinkers with the theme, "Restoring the Constitutional Congress."
We hope this contest will cultivate creative ideas that can improve legislative functionality and Constitutional accountability.
Please visit the Article I Initiative website and our Writing Contest page to stay connected and learn more.
