Should Congress be able to convene in secret?

Question

I didn't even know they had done this till last week and it happened in March. Why didn't the media even cover this as much as they should have?! Google it or look it up in youtube. They covered it slightly but I think more should have been inquired. Apparently it has only been done 6 times in the last 180 years. This is no conspiracy theory, it happened. What could be so important or sensitive that we the people who elect them can't know? I understand why spies meet in secret or the military, but a Congress that works for a democracy?

Answer 1

Yes.  If you want the back room deals which are sometimes necessary to get things moving, then you need to let them step away from the CSPAN cameras, light their cigars, and step behind closed doors.

Answer 2

I don't think they should.I think it's wrong. They are hiding something and it obviously will affect us all.Even if you call your Congressman I doubt if you will find anything out.I fear they are planning the doom of the U.S. in favor of the new world order.

Answer 3

They should be allowed. It's been done a few times and usually involves discussions of national security.  

Answer 4

No. They should not.
