Posts - Bill - HR 1973 No Pay for Congress During Default or Shutdown Act
house 03/10/2025 - 119th Congress
We propose the "No Pay for Congress During Default or Shutdown Act" to ensure accountability by reducing the pay of Members of Congress when the government hits the debt limit or experiences a shutdown. This legislation aims to align congressional incentives with responsible fiscal management and mitigate the financial impact on American citizens during such critical times.
