There’s a 40% pay increase for congress, 174K to 243K, in this monster.

So much other wasteful crap too.

Remember Speaker Mike Johnson promised no Christmas Omnibus, but here it is, as he lies to the USA again. Because this is not a CR but is an Christmas Omnibus Spending Bill, as it has tons of new spending in it.

These people are drunk on taxpayer monies.

We need a motion to vacate the chair now.

So if the government shuts down the Members of Congress do not get their raise—oh the horror!

Lol.

They don’t earn the $174,000 they get now and they dont need to be in Washington DC 2/3 the year either. They need to be in their districts serving their constituents. They could be in session 6 weeks per year and do everything else on zoom calls.
