Ensure that no bill, ammendment, etc. be approved or signed, except in emergencies until it is posted in final form for a sufficient time. The "Read the Bill" project http://www.readthebill.org , proposes 3 days, I would prefer 7 days.
Also contact your representative and have them make a commitment that they will vote against any bills that have posted for 3-7 days.

FTA: "Also contact your representative and have them make a commitment that they will vote against any bills that have posted for 3-7 days."
Do you mean "that have not been posted for 3-7 days?
Yes, My Bad, I did mean that the representative should only vote for a bill that was posted for a few days in final form on the internet.
Note there is a similar "Support a 72-Hour Mandatory Public Review Period on Major Spending Bills" proposal, http://opengov.ideascale.com/akira/dtd/2459-4049 , that has 642 votes.
