Insist Congress take responsibility-give up some of your pay & benefits to prove to America that you are working for us.

Created by S.S. on December 11, 2012

It’s time American’s start fighting for our rights. Stop paying Congress with our tax dollars for unlimited healthcare and lifetime pay. Mr. President, insist that Congress’s pay be cut substantially, reduce their benefits, and insist they take the same health care benefits we’re getting. Further, vow to create terms of office for more equality for the 99% of America. We need to see some tough action taken.
