How much were their pay raises?
Equal to or more than...........our yearly salaries!! You can bet on that.
I cannot speak to the MASS. pay raises but I know here the very first thing democrats did was refuse to vote against an automatic pay raise that saw them gain in the area of 6 thousand dollars per year.
They raise minimum wage by 2 grand and give themselves 6. I guess people approve of this because they keep voting them back into power here. In a way they were smart about it because they did it first thing so all will be forgotten by the time the next elections come around.
