Since not long after the inauguration of President Donald Trump in January 2017, the following message has been circulated via email and social media as representing a supposedly Trump-endorsed piece of legislation known as the Congressional Reform Act of 2017: However, this text has nothing to do with President Trump, Congress, or 2017. It's a piece of internet flotsam that's been around since 2009 and was originally identified as a Proposed 28th Amendment to the United States Constitution (although no one in Congress had actually submitted it as such) before being retitled as the Congressional Reform Act and attributed (wrongly) to business magnate Warren Buffett. We rate this newer variant as False because this item is a decade old, does not reflect an actual piece of legislation, and has not been championed by President Trump. Have you seen other variations of this claim? Let us know.
