Nancy Pelosi Against Congressional Pay Cuts

If anyone deserves a pay cut it's the Congress:
If Congress does not act on the sequester by March 1, automatic spending cuts will go into effect, and one of the things that will be affected will be Congressional salaries. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi came out firmly opposed to cutting lawmakers’ pay, saying it would be beneath the dignity of members of Congress.

Pelosi told reporters on Thursday that allowing the automatic cuts should be “out of the question,” and responded to a question about whether members of Congress would be willing to accept a pay cut.
