She makes $174 grand a year, and has trouble making ends meet?
Is she the congresswoman who had a baby out of wedlock? She mentions her 2 year old son, but no mention of a dad. Heck in her case, she really ought to be getting child support from him, but what do I know?????
She will really show her constituents how she feels their pain, as she struggles to make ends meet on $174K a year. (sarcasm)
Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Calif.), 39 and single, is pregnant
Sanchez and her boyfriend of a year and half, Jim Sullivan, a public relations consultant, are “unofficially engaged.” The baby is due May 21.
Sánchez was born in Orange, California and grew up with six siblings, raised by Mexican immigrant parents in Anaheim. She earned her BA in Spanish in 1991 at the University of California, Berkeley and her Juris Doctor degree in 1995 at the UCLA School of Law, where she was an editor of the Chicano-Latino Law Review.
Sánchez was an attorney specializing in labor law prior to her public service career. In 1998, she joined the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers (IBEW) Local 441 and became a compliance officer. In 2000 she was unanimously elected to the position of Executive Secretary/Treasurer of the Orange County Central Labor Council.
After the Arizona State Legislature passed State Senate Bill 1070 and after Arizona Governor Jan Brewer signed it into law, Linda Sanchez generated controversy when she claimed that the law, and similar laws throughout the United States, were the product of white supremacists: “There’s a concerted effort behind promoting these kinds of laws on a state-by-state basis by people who have ties to white supremacy groups. It’s been documented. It’s not mainstream politics.”

Sánchez is married to Jim Sullivan, whom she married on April 13, 2009, in the district office of Congressman John B. Larson, who introduced the two about two years prior to the wedding. The marriage is the second for Sanchez, and Sullivan has three children from a previous marriage. On May 13, 2009, she became the 8th woman to have given birth while serving in Congress when she gave birth to her first son, Joaquin Sánchez Sullivan.

She was married in 2009. Now I do not know if she was prego at the time. but she has a husband to help with the support.
When discussing Federal Income Tax Rates, $200 grand a year is Middle Class.
Look at it from her point of view. If the checks don’t keep rolling, she’ll have to dip into her bribe money, and that’s supposed to be for other things.
