Any chance to make passing/writing unconstitutional laws a crime?

Quick thought.
Rep's write a law extremely vague, unenforceable, etc. Obviously recent legislation is such. Now these people have folks writing these things for them, and Im sure lawyers involved. So before they even get proposed, they KNOW these things are unenforceable, and will fail under court judgement. In the meantime, they waste tax dollars paying to have the laws written, debated, advertised etc.
Then once passed, these laws get lawsuits filed, which costs the state MORE money to fight a losing fight.
So burn $$$ on the way in, and on the way out burn some more $$$.

This would cease to happen if the law writers, proposers of, and ideally signed supporters of, were commiting a crime, and actually served time for such an act. They know full well what they are doing. So how do we get them arrested for violating this? What crime would it be? Can we get a law on the books to do this, and would it be enforced/enforceable?

Quit "playing" politics, and just do what the law and people require of you. Why is that so hard?

This should be in the politics subforum, but it is already illegal to pass unconstitutional laws.

It is illegal to pass unconstitutional laws, but they pass the laws to test how far the can go.

It is even more illegal to pass said laws in direct opposition to the wishes of the overwhelming majority of their constituents, without honest research or even a clear understanding of the subject matter.

You know what oughta be a felony? Sneaking dozens of provisions in the small print of these laws at the last minute, which essentially create dozens of new "crimes" that no-one knows about until they decide to start enforcing them. UBC seems like a "good idea" to a lot of well meaning folks . . . until they realize you can be arrested simply for leaving a rifle at a relative's house for a couple of weeks, or swapping hunting rifles with a neighbor. Small print = deliberate persecution of law abiding gun owners. I love how the fucking Libtard apologists say, "but if you break the law then by definition you aren't law abiding." Guy never so much as gets a parking ticket his whole life, swaps rifles with a neighbor he's known since high school, and suddenly it's a federal felony if he fails to turn over all the guns in his house. Try enforcing that law and see what happens.

That's not true. The law simply gets nullified, there's no penalty to the lawmakers themselves.

It would take an amendment to the Constitution itself.

Right now, there's a clause in Article 1 of the US Constitution, called the "Speech or Debate Clause," which says, oh, hell, I'll just quote it:

Quote:

---

...shall in all Cases, except Treason, Felony, and Breach of the Peace, be privileged from Arrest during their attendance at the Session of their Respective Houses, and in going to and from the same; and for any Speech or Debate in either House, they shall not be questioned in any other Place.

Long story short, that would need to be repealed.
