HR 156: Stop the Congressional Pay Raise Act

People are constantly complaining about how the Congress takes such good care of itself. Here is a bill introduced by Rep. Harry Mitchell (D-Arizona) to prevent Congress from receiving its automatic pay increase in Federal Fiscal Year 2010 (Oct. 2009-Sept. 2010). Rep. Mitchell has 72 co-sponsors, including three from Ohio: Mary Jo Kilroy (D-Columbus), Zack Space (D-Dover), and Robert Latta (R-Bowling Green).

Most of the co-sponsors are Democrats; but I thought the Republicans were going to change their tune and become the party of governmental economy...

Warning to the GOP: Your credibility is going... going... Don't wait until it's gone.
