Demand cuts in Congressional lawmakers' salaries FIRST, before instituting budget cuts and sequester affecting the entire nation!
Congressional lawmakers made their own salaries EXEMPT
from those cuts and feel no urgency to act.
Why is this important?
Government might default because of possible sequestration.
The sequester details cuts from Medicare , housing needs for the poor, food safety, Army, etc. _EXCEPTING the salaries of Congressional lawmakers.
These are the very people whose salaries should be cut first and proportionally, as we get closer to the deadlie. These are the very people whose inaction brought the country to the brink last year.
It's time to cut Congressional lawmakers' salaries NOW!
