That's great Rick, but remember no back pay also for congress in the event of a shutdown. Congress doesn't need a pension, most go into congress as non millionaires and leave millionaires. Due to insider trading that the rest of us go to jail for.
During the shutdown, hardworking Americans went without pay while Cong. members were still collecting paychecks.
I co-sponsored #NoBudgetNoPay and today, I’m proud to introduce a bill with @SenatorBraun that ends taxpayer-funded congressional pensions.

This will make it that much easier for sellouts and millionaires like yourself to strain the few members of congress who are actually working class. Gotta get rid of those, amirite!? Congressmen receive a salary so they won't need to take bribes, people!

This might be popular but it is wrong. It will help make sure only the rich can afford to run for office and serve. Let’s work on real issues, lower spending and grow the economy not something like this

ABSOLUTELY! No one should get a full lifetime pension for serving 1 term! Way to go!
