Why does this CR redefine: murderers, rapists, child rapists, kidnappers, terrorists, cartel members, drug dealers, sex traffickers, drug traffickers, human traffickers, domestic abusers, child pornographers, arsonists, serial killers, and cannibals among other things... as “justice involved individuals?”

These are criminals, as in “criminal offenders,” and should be labeled as such! Page 1400.

Why are they spending billions of dollars to build a sports stadium for a football team from Maryland in the CR?
And a massive 40% pay increase for the overpaid congressmen. This CR had to die. And Johnson has to go.

When this bill dies, and die it will, next up will be to give that greasy snake Johnson the boot and replace him with a MAGA loyalist.

Edit the CR bill.

Cut out undesirable and unclear parts and paste them into a new bill document.

Pass the cleansed bill.

Quotes:

Congress is required by Article I, Section 6, of the Constitution to determine its own pay. Prior to 1969, Congress did so by enacting stand-alone legislation. From 1789 through 1968, Congress raised its pay 22 times using this procedure.

Congressional salaries initially were $1,500. By 1968, they had risen to $30,000.

Stand-alone legislation may still be used to raise Member pay, as it was most recently in 1982, 1983, 1989, and 1991, but two other methods are now also available, an automatic annual adjustment procedure and a commission process.

In January 2006, Members received a 1.9% increase under the annual adjustment procedure, increasing their salary to $165,200. They are scheduled to receive a 2.0% increase under the procedure in January 2007, to $168,500.

“Some Republicans suggested he was mulling stripping the bill of everything but the spending extension and putting it to a vote, but the fate of such a measure was also very much in doubt.”

Get going!

Five days and eleven hours until Christmas Eve!
