Let me know when the Senate follows suit...
House members vote to freeze their own salaries - Oversight - GovExec.com
House members voted on Friday to pass the Legislative Branch budget for
fiscal year 2013, which includes their own salaries as well as those of
their staff. Though funding across the House of Representatives has
been reduced by 10.5 percent since Republicans took control of the
chamber in 2011, according to House Appropriations Chairman Rep. Harold
Rogers, R-Ky., salaries and members’ representational allowances will
remain unchanged in 2013 if the Senate approves the bill.
The total for operations and maintenance of the House in fiscal year 2012—and now proposed for 2013--is $1.2 billion.
