Below is an attempt to spread the pain --
This week will mark the second month of Sequestration and still Congress has not come together to address the devastating cuts beginning to hit communities. Some of those cuts involved Head Start and education funding while other cuts leave our national security vulnerable. I’ve been getting countless emails from people across the country with their very personal story of how this is impacting them.
Congressman Loebsack is working to pass his bill, HR 398, which would create a permanent 10%
pay cut for Congress while also eliminating automatic pay increases.
