Due to the state of the economy and due to the high levels unemployment and the hundreds of homeless people, and due to the reduction of Deportment of Defense funding. We feel no State or Federal official can give themselves or another official a raise of more than $10,000 in more than a 10 year period. Any official in office for a prolonged period of time will have a cap of 5 payments not to exceed $50,000 without benefits for their personal transportation, vacation time and any miscellaneous nongovernmental functions. The money that is saved could give intensives to company's to bring jobs back into the country to help unemployment levels drop, and also give more funding for the Deportment of Defense.
