Create an executive order to temporarily suspend pay to all members of Congress,until the government shutdown is over.

Created by N.M. on October 01, 2013

President Obama should create an executive order to freeze the salaries of all members of Congress,until the government shutdown is over. The frozen salaries should be reallocated to paying federal workers, who are now out of the job. This Congress needs to show accountability for their actions,mistakes,and failures to properly represent their constituents best interest. Congress has failed to,as Article 1 section 8 of the Constitution says,"make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.", by shutting down the government, and preventing the execution of OUR government.
