I pledge the following to the American people: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#6666cc;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I will serve the people I represent to the best of my ability.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I will place Congressional demands before personal ones.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I will place accepted principles above party politics.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I will not accept, nor offer, any favors to influence voting&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I will not act in any way to dishonor my office or my country.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;* I will not act in any way to weaken our nation's security.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6666cc;"&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6666cc;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:78%;"&gt;Composed by J.E.Bailey 11 Nov. 2006&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="color:#6666cc;"&gt;*************************************************************&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please copy the above pledge and then fax, e-mail or write your Senator and/or Congressman and ask them to "take the pledge". There is no good reason that a politician should refuse to accept the the six articles in the "Congressional Code of Conduct". If he or she does refuse to sign the pledge then I think you should reconsider returning them to office.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Thank you for your efforts on behalf of honesty in government.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7563742871672630041-5256344236693305273?l=congressionalcodeofconduct.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://congressionalcodeofconduct.blogspot.com/feeds/5256344236693305273/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7563742871672630041&amp;postID=5256344236693305273' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7563742871672630041/posts/default/5256344236693305273'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7563742871672630041/posts/default/5256344236693305273'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://congressionalcodeofconduct.blogspot.com/2006/11/congressional-code-of-conduct.html' title=''/><author><name>JEBailey</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/00807681884519681225</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
