Why would they pass this if they even can't pass a budget

Yea.... Big fucking deal.... This and "term limits" and all the other things that get proposed but get a big middle finger because the communists in our government are NEVER going to hold themselves accountable....

An Oklahoma representative, him and Gov. Stitt are the good guys, Texas and Oklahoma lawmakers have been fighting pretty hardcore over this shit.. Now if we could just get more

Come on! NO WAY!

Just reading the headline - can someone please help me understand HOW do they think this shit makes any sense to us???

I mean, I could be wrong - but isn’t this the textbook definition of fucking coercion or some shit? I guess they got away with the $2k bribe for voting for them.

Bribery & coercion... these used to be the types of crimes they keep secret! But you know what - Biden’s reworking the definition of domestic terrorism to try and reduce their fucking sentences or something - because there is NO way they’re going to get away with this shit.

Their salary is not how they make their money, prevent them from trading, investing, taking advantage of insider knowledge, taking money via lobbies, bribes, and government contracts funded by American taxpayers.

Rob Whitman (VA-1) has been advocating for this for several years.

it a start.

First, they cant pass it because they are illegitimate. Second, the law should be that if you have a net worth of X dollars, you do not receive a salary or benefits. Why are WE giving freebies to people who are worth hundreds of millions of dollars AT ALL?

I realize their "pittance" of a salary and benefits is not much but WHY IN HELL ARE PROVIDING IT TO MILLIONAIRES!!

Don't they have plenty of income besides their salaries? Does this even matter?

I praise his enthusiasm, but that and all the tea in China still won't get him what he's proposing here.

"Just dont looks at the kickbacks and insider trading"

And take a Moderna cacine 3 times, triple mask and social distance

sounds good in theory, but in practice they all make most of their money through bribes and embezzling from charities they vote to give tax money to.

fuck that

there will never be another govt shutdown again

every time the government can’t decide how to waste our money and has to shut down, my heart grows a little bit stronger

Typical “look how conservative I am” when the rinos are loosing

They don't care. It is 2% of their income. Stop funding all their expenses would at least get their attention.

Unfortunately the Congress would have to vote on this becoming law and that is about as likely as Biden signing a anti pedo bill!

Withhold salaries unless they pass a BALANCED budget!

Too bad their salary isn't where they make their money.

Personally, NO Approval, NO Pay! They want to change the First and Second Amendments, start with the 27th. Let them see what's it like to go without!

With most of Congress either in Gitmo or Executed, I do not think any Budget proposals are going to be made.

Withhold salaries AND FINE 100% OF ALL FUTURE PROCEEDS FROM ANY SOURCE, unless budget. Don't begin to think the salaries even matter to these grifters. Nobody can make 300K per year and end up with 100s of million$ without corruption. Force them to work, or Take Everything From Them Forevermore.

Wrots uf phocking wruck getten dis passed.

Can we make that a balanced budget? That would be something...

After searching, I seem to have found the PDF of the bill.
