Ppl rag on Congress’ salary &it’s easy to score political points on it, but many don’t know it requires paying 2 rents, can’t deduct work costs, etc Result is grand gestures to tout that they/staff aren’t getting COLA adjustments, but then trading stock to make up for it -worse! — PolitiTweet.org

What’s worse is that many who engage in these practices publicly tout not approving cost of living or MRA increases in the leg branch as a way of claiming “fiscal responsibility,” yet compensate by engaging in this highly questionable trading. It incentivizes this bad behavior — PolitiTweet.org

When a handful of us in the House warned this would happen if Dem leaders gave Manchin everything he wanted 1st by moving BIF before BBB instead of passing together, many ridiculed our position. Maybe they’ll believe us next time. Or maybe people will just keep calling us naïve. — PolitiTweet.org

!!!!!!!!!!!! Manchin says he's done with BBB and it's over "I cannot vote to continue with this piece of legislation" "I can't get there"
