The truth is that most of congress, from both parties, would vote themselves a raise if the opportunity presents itself. They’re all frauds.

Ditto on that ... time to start building guillotines 24/7!

Back in ‘86 the critters fixed it so they didn’t have to vote. Raises were made automatic. That relieved them from the indignity of voting themselves more money, but the amount was set. So Moron and others just want greater automatic raises.
It’s enough to make a crow blush.

Those stupid, slaver white guys of the Framing generation thought it best if self-serving congressional pay raises were delayed until after elections. Of course, like the rest of the constitution, the 27th Amendment is ignored as well.
