Pelosi Raises House Clerks’ Pay to $212K Max, More Than Congressmen

In her last act as Speaker, Nancy Pelosi gave the swamp critters on the House staff a nice big pay raise of up to $212,000. That’s $38,000 more than members of Congress make.

These are the clerks writing bills no one reads, keeping schedules for congressmen, going on coffee runs, and so on.

Before this, House staff pay was negotiated on an individual basis and depended on their ability.

Issue One found one out of eight congressional offices were not paying wages that are comparable to the cost of living in Washington, D.C. The report estimated that there were roughly 1,200 congressional staffers making less than $42,610 annually.

Now they’ll all make a lot of money, more than congressmen.

If I am reading this right, some staffers are being given a raise that would equal close to 5 times what they were making? I.e., lowest paid was at 42k, now at 212k.

Pelosi is an ignorant cretin who should never have been elected to Congress in the first place.

She’s paving the way for a pay raise for Congress persons. That’s the way unions do it – when the minimum wage increases, they ask for a raise because they’re ‘specially trained union workers’ who’re ‘entitled’ to get $500 an hour to put a nut on a bolt on an assembly line, 5 weeks of vacation, 6 months of family leave, naps on coffee breaks and a shop steward who guarantees the incompetent can’t be fired – just like incompetent Congress members who make millions off insider trading, pay kids to stuff envelopes for them, take paid vacations called ‘fact finding missions’ & use campaign cash for all sorts of personal expenses.
Have any of them returned from mid-winter breaks @ foreign beaches & getting a sun tan yet – while their constituents freeze to death?
Take heart! You gas/electric bills are going up Jan 1st with FJoeBiden’s latest tax hikes on natural gas/coal – his little lump of coal in your stocking – Thanks Joey.
