House approves bill slashing Pete Buttigieg's salary to $1
Fox News ^ | 11/23 | Thomas Catenacci

The House approved a measure late Tuesday that would slash Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg's taxpayer-funded government salary to just $1.

The bill — which was introduced by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene, R-Ga. — was passed via voice vote Tuesday as an amendment to the 2024 Financial Services and General Government Appropriations Act, the standalone funding bill for the General Services Administration, Securities and Exchange Commission and other related agencies.

"I’m proud to announce my amendment to FIRE Pete Buttigieg just PASSED the House. Pothole Pete staged fake bike rides to the White House and used private planes funded by taxpayers to receive awards for the way certain people have sex," Greene said in a social media post Tuesday. "American taxpayers should not be on the hook for paying for his lavish trips or his salary."

If you add Ukraine funding to it, would President Biden sign it?

Useless theatrics.... Impeach Biden, Myorkas and Garland to start with and then play the useless games.

My 6 year old grandson could run this country and the RNC better.

This House bill has to be passed by the Senate, and then signed by the president.

So it’s a nice gesture. But it’s not going be adapted. Pete can be sure that his salary is safe.

Why stop with Buttigieg? Slash the salaries of Mayorkas & Wray as well. Jennifer Granholm same thing. I’m sure there are others, those three just come to mind instantly.
