I’m sorry. This is bogus jive crappola.
So someone decides he doesn’t want to spend $500/month for a room in the area so he decides to live in his place of employment. Since he’s congressional rep, it’s ok?
Tell me, what would happen if servicemembers assigned to the DC area decided that they’re just going to live in the Pentagon, the Crystal City/Rosslyn/Ballston offrice buildings to save money? They’d be told to “GET OUT.”
That’s what this $174k/year congressman should be told.
this guy lives in utah and works in dc. your comparisons do not apply.
