Tie congressional salaries to minimum wage.

Created by C.J. on November 14, 2012

They will be more likely to keep minimum wage in check with the cost of living if it also affects their salary. 6 to 8 times minimum wage would probably be good.

This will save them money and give them more time with their constituents.
