Take Care of Yourself First

I don’t know why this is news, but members of Congress have voted themselves another pay raise. It’s actually an automatic cost-of-living raise, which Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, wanted the House to decline this year.

But no, the House held its head up high, and voted down Matheson’s amendment. Let’s hope that the voters will return a bunch of them back home come November, so they won’t see this raise in their checks.
