There are of course many other structural factors (including Congress itself), but low pay shuts the door for so many talented people right out of the gate that they can’t accept the opportunity. Some wages are so low they essentially require generational wealth to subsidize. — PolitiTweet.org

This is because Congress doesn’t pay enough to retain working class talent. Conservatives use cutting Congress’ budget to score points, but this cuts staff wages so low that many can’t afford to work here or need a 2nd job. Policy improves & the nation benefits when we invest. — PolitiTweet.org

This Congress is the most diverse ever. But Hill staffers remain overwhelmingly white. https://t.co/LGz2H5dOyl

(For the record, I pay all my interns $15/hr & my lowest paid staff is in the mid-$50s, but that comes w/choosing to have a smaller team. Many will not/cannot make that choice given the demands, but the scarcity is unnecessary- Congress shld choose to expand the MRA & pay staff) — PolitiTweet.org
