What do you think of a Constitutional Amendment that says the House and Senate must put any bill passed in the other chamber to the vote?
The Speaker of the House could not sit on Senate bills, The Senate Majority leader can’t sit on House Bills, perhaps a 60 day time limit. Any bill not rejected in 60 days passes automatically.

Sixty days isn't very long for the other chamber to committee, hear, debate and mark-up a piece of legislation, particularly a major or complicated one.
The Affordable Care Act was 2300 pages.
Require them to vote on everything in 60 days means they vote "no" simply because they haven't had the time or they vote "yes" without knowing about the fine print of the bill or without having a real understanding of what the impact of the legislation is likely to be. Doesn't sound like a great way to make decisions.
