Petition to Reduce the Wages of Congress Men and Women from $174,000 per year to $50,000 per year.
Petition to Reduce the Wages of Congress Men and Women from $174,000 per year to $50,000 per year.
The Issue
PLEASE SIGN THIS PETITION TO REDUCE THE ANNUAL SALARY OF SENATORS AND CONGRESS MEN AND WOMEN FROM $174,000 PER YEAR TO $50,000 PER YEAR.
The average congress man and woman make $174,000 per year, legally.
That money is paid to them by the government, by the people, from the taxes you and I pay into the system.
In these tough economic times, I vote the men and women of congress reduce their annual salary to a more realistic level, $50,000, per year.
That is a good salary, with all of the vacations and outside money they are allowed to make, legally, they should be so lucky.
If you feel the men and women of congress should reduce their annual salary from $174,000 per year to $50,000 per year, please sign this petition to support my effort to make it a reality.
If 100 million people signed this petition, they would listen, they would have to listen.
If they cannot get by on $50,000 per year, a sum many would love to take home right now in these economic times, they can quit.
There are many people who will gladly run for their positions, take their positions and do a better job for $50,000 a year and serve the people well in the process.
Their job is to serve us, not themselves.
