Reject Congressional 40% salary raise. Shutdown government until Jan 20, 2025.

[@PresidentEloniaMusk]

No, the proposed continuing resolution doesn't give members of Congress a 40% pay raise. If passed, it would give them a 3.8% salary increase. WHAT WE FOUND Claims that members of Congress would receive a 40% pay raise with the passage of the proposed spending bill are false. According to the Congressional Research Service (CRS), the spending bill would grant members of Congress only a 3.8% increase, raising their salary from $174,000 to $180,600, an increase of $6,600. Current law automatically gives members of Congress a pay raise based on the Employment Cost Index (ECI), a statistic published by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. However, Congress can block those raises from occurring and have done so every year since 2009. Since 2009, Congress has included provisions in spending bills to freeze its own pay. The most recent spending bill omits the language that freezes pay, which means if passed, members of Congress in 2025 would receive the 3.8% pay increase set by the ECI, making their new salary $180,600.

I don’t think his federal employee Trumpsters want him censored. I think they like working for no pay. I’m sure Trump will appreciate their sacrifice.

Trump: im putting Musk and vivek in charge of cutting costs. Musk: this bill is all pork. Don't pass it. Cnn: oh look Musk is in charge of trump. He tweeted first. Me: ahhh fake news again. They still wont learn.
