Sign the petition for Congress to vote to Cut Congressional Salaries 30% for 30 months. Average Americans have been taking cuts for 7 years, they should join in and take one for the team.
Why is this important?
Since the average American has taken cuts in pay and work benefits, Congressional members of Congress who have served more than one term should bear some portion of the pain felt by the average American. A 30% cut in their pay would free up federal dollars and help lower the deficit until the country can stabilize itself. For a period of 30 months- 30% of Congressional pay should witheld until each member realizes that their pay is a burden on the average American's taxpayer.
