In a move that has left legal scholars scratching their heads and poets grinning ear to ear, the Senate has officially passed the "Rhyme and Reason Act," mandating that all future laws be composed in rhyme. The bill, which sailed through with overwhelming support, aims to make legislation more memorable — and possibly more entertaining — for the average citizen. "Why should laws read like dry toast when they could boast a poetic host?" Senator Linda Versify proclaimed during the heated debate.

The new requirement means every bill, from tax codes to traffic rules, must now be crafted in couplets, limericks, or even haikus. Early drafts of the upcoming "Clean Water Act" have lines like, "Factories must not pollute or spill, or face a fine that's quite a bill." Legal experts warn this could cause "judicial tongue-twisters" and unexpected courtroom rap battles.

Opponents of the act worry about the clarity of laws when forced into verse. "Imagine a judge trying to interpret a law that says, 'No shoes, no shirt, no service, that's the rule; if you break it, you'll look like a fool,'" argued Representative Jack Literal. Meanwhile, poets nationwide are preparing to lobby for the "Sonnet Subsidy," hoping to get paid for their newly required legislative rhymes.

As the nation braces for a new era where legalese meets lyrical ease, one thing is certain: reading the news might finally rhyme with fun. Or, as Senator Versify puts it, "In Congress now we write with flair, so laws are fair and full of air!"
