Clicky Poll on Congress paying themselves
Re: Clicky Poll on Congress paying themselves
I agree on all of this.
I mean, who else gets to decide when and how much of a raise they get?! Raises for congress (state AND national) should be decided on by the public.
it's easy to decide to "hold your ground" during a shutdown when you're a) overpaid as is and b) arranging to make sure YOU still get paid.
Oops, I don't know how to change my vote to "NO"
I thought it was for their whole term (my answer to that is yes, however there should be a limit, for pete's sake - these people VOLUNTEERED to run in the elections). I didn't see "during the shutdown," I haven't had enough coffee yet.
I agree with everyone else, no way should they get paid. This is ridiculous.
