WHERE’S THE MONEY?

 

 

    “The current members of the General Assembly have slapped taxpayers in the face by awarding themselves a huge pay increase.  While some members did vote ‘no’ on the increase, it is common knowledge that all votes were pre-arranged to protect vulnerable seats.”  http://www.pacleansweep.com

 

“State Representative Gib C. Armstrong says he has changed his mind about immediately taking the pay raise the General Assembly gave itself last month.  Armstrong, a Strasburg Republican, is on a list of 17 members of the state House who voted against the pay hike but then elected to take it, through a loophole known as ‘an unvouchered expense,’ before the next legislative session.”

“…According to the clerk’s office, however, once an expense is processed, there’s no way for legislators to prove they didn’t take the money unless they choose to make all their vouchers and receipts public.”  Today’s New Era article, “Rep. Armstrong backs off pay hike.”   The article is here.

I guess, young Gib, you better show us all your vouchers and receipts.  Every one of them.  Young Gib wants a pay raise and yet he wants to spend our money on this very dangerous crap:

 

                       ~ Young Gib’s Resolution No. 177 ~

CRAP, DANGEROUS CRAP

(Below are excerpts from Resolution No. 177.  This has nothing to do with “tolerance and diversity.”  This has everything to do with denying freedom of speech.  This is a disgrace. This is downright scary.  Young Gib has got to go.)

 

“AS AMENDED, HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES, JULY 5, 2005
