Lawmakers coasting
Why is it that our representatives and senators always get their full pay and the
rest of us don't during this virus? As many of our fellow friends are out of work, they and their families suffer. Many work on tips or commissions.
Let's take an educated look at those we choose to represent us. Instead of working a five-day week, Monday through Friday, they use two of the days for travel . That means they are only spending three days, doing the people's work. why can't hey get a reduction in pay for the hours they actually work? No one is forcing
them to take these jobs.
Just a question.
