Lawmakers rushing through a 200% pay increase!

(This blog is not for my writers life blog, this is more of a personal upset by politics blog, so please excuse the ranting. sorry)

Our lawmakers are pushing a 200 % pay raise for themselves. We did not get to vote on this. Not only that, their raise will be linked to congressional pay. If congress gets a pay raise, so do the lawmakers. (I'm shaking my head in shame over this sneaky trick these lawmakers are doing to the citizen's of Louisiana, shame on you! We will be watching the final vote.)

I voted for Bobby Jindal Gov., who I think is a very smart man, at least so far he has been. But, then I hear he has turned his cheek to this Senate Bill 672. Not good, Gov. Jindal, not good at all. Don't allow them to bully you. Do a great job for us, and stay true to yourself.

Do what is right.

So if you are in Louisiana and you want your voice to be heard email Gov. Jindal or your State Rep. Go to the website: http://www.gov.louisiana.gov/
or call 866-366-1121.

Us Louisiana people don't like being made a fool of. We will remember who voted to pass this and who voted against it.
