The Holman rule is a rule in the United States House of Representatives that allows amendments to appropriations legislation that would reduce the salary of or fire specific federal employees, or cut a specific program. Versions of the rule were in effect during 1876–1895 and again during 1911–1983.
It was reinstated for the Republican-controlled 115th Congress during 2017–2019, and several amendments were proposed that progressed to a vote of the full House, but none were adopted. The rule was rescinded once more at the beginning of the 116th Congress upon Democrats taking control of the chamber, and was restored once Republicans retook the House majority for the 118th Congress in 2023.[1]
Wasn't he on the board of Raytheon and never resigned from it, when they suddenly scored mega deals with SA etc? They're super slava ukrayni y'know. His gajillions ain't coming from the gubmint, so they can do what they want with that salary.
I feel like all these bills are show bills. Is this even going to pass and is it even going anywhere past the house? We all know it’s not so you are wasting our time and money
"Benedict Arnold, your pay has been cut to $1.00. You'll have to rely on just your British paycheck now! Haha! That'll teach you!"
We will never get the votes for that.
With that said, those voting no need to be exposed and PRIMARIED!
Let's make it negative....
I vote for the Lincoln penny!
