This seems like a good idea to add some extra checks and balances in order to prevent abuse of the rule of law by an unethical president. I'll vote for this bill as is.

Abstain
I honestly see both sides of this issue, but I do think that the Congress' power to rescind a pardon is fine enough. However, while Atlasia is a totally different place today than it was in 2014, I do think that the culture of Atlasia can once again toxify itself to the point that a measure like this would be needed to prevent abuses of power.
