With 8.8 percent unemployment across the country and more than 8 million people claiming unemployment benefits, one California congresswoman wants people to know they’re not the only ones facing financial hardship. Who else might be? The lawmaker herself.
In an appearance on MSNBC Thursday, Democratic California Rep. Linda Sánchez talked about the downsides of a federal government shutdown. Some lawmakers, to the seriousness of the issue, have said they would forgo their paychecks in the event of that shutdown. Sanchez explained she just can’t afford to go along with that idea.
What’s her husband, Jim Sullivan do and what kind of income does his work generate? He’s some kind of Democratic consultant (is he paid by his wife campaign as a consultant?)
LOL! That’s great.
as a Californian, I’d rather not pay her at all in the first place
