In order to feel truly understood and represented by our Government, we would like to see the Senators and Congressmen, live on a restricted salary determined by the income medians for the poverty line, and middle class.
They will donate their outside income during this time to public serving organizations, such as schools, scholarship funds, small business development, and other community enriching groups in their respective home communities.
In 6 month increments, we would like them to continue their work while living on the same government benefits provided to the American people -- Minimum wage, food stamps, state base health care programs, in order to fully sympathize and support -- to truly represent each cross section of the American people.
