Secret rule change will see House lawmakers get a $34,000 PAY BUMP - Republicans slam Democrats for 'clandestine' move that should have been 'debated in public'
2023-01-13
  • House Democrats secretly passed a new rule that will see lawmakers get a $34,000 pay raise

  • It allows House members to be reimbursed for the cost of lodging, food and travel while on official business in DC

  • The rule change was not debated on the House floor and many members only found out about the change on Tuesday

  • Advocates say it is necessary to allow more people to serve in Congress, but Republicans say it should have been publicly debated
