A Value We Teach Our Kids
Dear Friend,
Getting things done on time is important. It is a value we teach our kids. We all have to pay our mortgages or rent, taxes, credit card bills, and utility bills.
There is an annual deadline that the House and Senate have failed to meet with embarrassing frequency. The federal government operates on a fiscal year that begins on October 1st and ends on September 30th. Congress and the President are responsible for enacting budgets and twelve annual appropriations bills by September 30th.
At least that’s how it’s supposed to work.
Unfortunately, Congresses led by both parties have finished their work on all regular appropriations bills by this deadline only four times since 1977.
This is ridiculous.
That is why I introduced the Congressional Pay for Performance Act, a solution to address the broken and inefficient budget and appropriations process. This simple bill will hold Congress accountable and force it to comply with deadlines, just like people in the real world outside of Washington, D.C. Click here to read my op-ed in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.
I wanted to get your input. Would you please take a few seconds to complete the survey below?
Sincerely,
Keith
