3.2 Compensation

Currently, Congress sets the compensation for the Supreme Court Justices.  This puts the compensation in the area of political debate and decisions which can only cause problems.

The New Constitution corrects this problem.  First, in the definition of terms in the Preamble, there is a definition of compensation:

“Compensation” includes current and future monies accrued or paid to a Person by the United States, plus items of value accrued or paid for by the United States including, but not limited to, living expenses, health care and retirement benefits.
 
In the New Constitution, the House of Representatives can recommend a change in compensation for the Supreme Court Justices.   The recommend is given to The People and The People vote “yes” or “no” on the recommendation.  In a binding referendum, the “owners” now approve the compensation of its Supreme Court Justices.

This Section also approves ten days of vacation a year for each for the Supreme Court Justices.
Section 1.7 also requires a binding referendum for approval of compensation for members of Congress.

2.11 State Of The Nation

This section is an updated version of the original Constitution's Article 2 Section 3.  What changes is that the President must give the report the first Monday of each year rather than being allowed to give from “time to time”.  It also requires the report be given by the President both in writing and verbally.

2.4 Succession in Office


This section deals with what to do if the President cannot or will not fulfill the duties of the office.  Essentially this section combines the statements dealing with this issue in Section 1 Article 2 of the original Constitution and in Amendment 20.  The logistical issue is complex and not easy to express in words; a decision chart would work better but is not appropriate in this form of document.
