Big Government Democrats Stick it To Tax-Payers… Again

I voted on YouCut to eliminate federal pay-raises. This would submit Big Government employees to the same, harsh reality that we Americans face. But, when Rep. Bachmann offered the issue to the House, Democrats rejected the proposal.

From the YouCut email:

Rep. Michele Bachmann offered this week’s winning cut on the House Floor; an amendment to eliminate a pay raise for federal government employees – including right here in the Capitol – saving the taxpayers over $30 billion.

The Democrats gaveled it down from the Speaker’s chair, shutting down debate. The reason the Democrat Majority gave? It would prevent federal workers on Capitol Hill from getting a pay raise, so it could not be considered. That is literally the reason they gave. It is astounding, and an affront to every small businessperson and struggling family across this country.
