Congress to take two week vacation while TSA works without pay

[C_Clayton_Jones]

I can see working without pay for a few days while Congress settles a funding bill.
But workers have been showing up for work without pay for over a month and now Congress is leaving for a two week Easter recess.

If I worked for TSA, that would be the last straw.
Working for two more weeks without pay because Congress wants to go home.
Workers should all refuse to show up as soon as Congress goes into recess.
Shut down ALL Airports until Congress does its job

A Paid Vacation for Congress. A $0 Paycheck for TSA.

There is a striking irony in Congress preparing to leave town for a two-week paid recess while TSA officers, the people who secure America’s travel system, face yet another $0 paycheck

The problem is Congressional Republicans who refuse to enact reforms necessary to prevent criminal ICE thugs from murdering more Americans.

And several other things as well.

Supposedly, the Senate has a deal

I'll believe it when I see it. This may be the time to go harass those assholes for not doing what they are supposed to.

Read your 27th Amendment.

That just means they can’t vote to INCREASE their salaries until the next election. It’s intended to protect the people from Congress Critters enriching themselves at the drop of a hat.

Congress hasn’t had a pay raise since 2009
