Just heard a great suggestion on a radio show.

We don’t have poor reps or senators. With the military looking at not having paychecks, call your rep, ask that they donate their entire salary, which they’re getting, and their retirement, and their expense accounts, to active military, while also relinquishing the right to receive back pay in the future.
They’re all big boys. They can all afford it.
Ask that they request the same of the democrats.
It won’t pay military salaries, but it’s a great sentiment.
