demand that the US congress author and pass a bill into law that prevents them from voting for their own pay raises.

Created by W.U. on November 07, 2013

I want you to petition the US Congress to author and pass a bill that revamps how they get raises in pay every year. No one that works for the American people should be allowed to vote their own pay raise into effect. They should define a fair system that is based on merit. That system should be tied in part to the unbiased public approval opinion polls. The American people are who they work for and they should have a say in how much or whether you deserve a raise. There should also be a "clause" in the bill that enables a national vote if certain parameters are not met. And they should never again be allowed to conduct "midnight" votes in effect in secret. The US congressional representatives say they have integrity, now is the time to prove it!
