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.
Iowa Republican Representative Rod Blum introduced legislation Friday that seems to be that type of proposal, though there are many who will feel it is just for show and will never come to an actual vote. Nevertheless, it is worth considering and following, because it could set a standard for future debate in coming years.
See Rep. Rod Blum’s proposed legislation on page 2:
TRUMP for President ………….WE want OUR country back
Good. I think it would bring back some respectability to Congress.
Lets pass that and put it into effect immediately. That is a sure way to get to a balanced budget isn’t it????
Money talks and BS walks
good they get paid too much any way they shoulde get paid minum wage like every one else we tax payers are tired of them not doing their job
Should have happen long time ago
Yes yes. Today. No balanced budget, no pay.
We need to cut the retirement of the former Presidents and Congress members. Really do we have to pay the former POTUS almost 1/2 mil a year until they die, and do we have to give the first lady money until she dies, former Congress and Senate members do not need to continue making the same wage as they did while in office. I know why these salaries were started, but in this day in age as circumstances have changed it does not need to be maintained.
excellent who came up with that idea whom ever it is they are genius
Leonard Eacker I totally agree.
