Does this surprise you?
Despite “record-low” approval ratings, House lawmakers Wednesday (6/27/07) voted to accept an approximately $4,400 pay raise that will increase their salaries to almost $170,000 - Does this surprise you ?
Hmm..I guess we can’t say they’re the ‘do nothing’ Congress.
This doesn’t suprise me for 2 reasons.
$170,000 isn’t that much money for DC. When adjusted for cost-of-living in our respective cities I make about as much as Senators do. My job isn’t nearly as important as theirs so I don’t see why they should make less than I do.
Who refuses a pay raise. If my boss offered me a raise if I wanted it I would be foolish to decline it.
