- Senator pay went up every year from 1789-2009. Maybe they don't want to raise the minimum wage because they haven't gotten a raise either. https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/senate_salaries.htm 7 comments politics
- In 2000, the yearly salary was $141,300 for members of Congress. The current salary is $174,000 and has been since 2009. Adjusting for inflation the current salary should be $218,038.96. How can we expect wages to rise and a livable minimum wage when lawmakers cant even get their own wages right? https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/senate_salaries.htm 3 comments politics
- Overpaid Senators make $174,000 a year and we pay them with our tax dollars! http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/senate_salaries.htm 27 comments politics
- Senator Salaries since 1789. The most surprising thing isn't the $8.8k/yr raise since 2007, but that they actually took a paycut in the great depression -- and oh, it was the *last* time they took a paycut. Carry on. http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/senate_salaries.htm 27 comments reddit.com
