have Congress & lawmakers paid a minimum hourly wage without benefits or sick days in the name of progress.

Congress & those in charge of lawmaking and legislation are largely out of touch with the plight of the average working class person/family. I/we believe that if they were payed an hourly wage without benefits, there would be a greater incentive for Congresspeople/lawmakers to introduce legislation aimed at reducing income inequality, thereby increasing the overall quality of living and spending power of the average American in the United States.
