The article discusses the lobbying efforts of Norman Ornstein, a scholar at the American Enterprise Institute, who has been trying to get the United States Congress to address the issue of emergency government for the United States. Established constitutional law is said to be insufficient to provide for catastrophic emergencies such as the complete destruction of congress by a terrorist act, which is believed to have been the intent of the terrorists on United Flight 93 in September 2001.
