Create legislative houses for future generations

Create an upper house in the legislative branch of government devoted exclusively to the wellbeing of future generations…in the system would be bicameral national legislatures constituted by a lower house focused on attending to the interests of the people who exist today, and an upper house focused on attending to the interests of all future generations. Legislation may be proposed in either house but must be passed by both houses to become law… a strong constitution providing basic rights and freedoms to both presently existing and future people would provide another strong backstop against the tyranny of either house.
