The American public is tired of the lies coming from Congress and cynical about their ability to lead the nation and whether they truly represent the people. Occasionally, a congressman will come along and inspire the nation with an idea or a proposal that resonates and suggests that our representatives actually do care about our well being.

PEOPLE HAD BETTER WAKE UP ,,,,,THEY STEAL MORE THEN THEY EARN,,,,THEY KEEP FINDING WAYS TO TAKE FROM THE POOR ,,,,,STEP UP SPEAK UP ,,,,,,
Pass the bill
What about Obama’s salary
Won’t happen, they didn’t pay Illinois politicians until they balanced the budget, long story short they still got paid and we still don’t have a balanced budget. Every is blaming rauner for the mess because he’s a repblican, but its the decades of democrats that brought the state to its knees but they choose to blame the governors party for their mess up.
It’s B******t! Can’t believe them!
That never works! What is this like 10 years old?
Pfffff most are so rich from inside investments, they wouldn’t notice thier actual salary being cut.
It’s just B******t!
