I was elated to see state Rep. Jeremy Shaffer introduce a bill to stop lawmakers’ automatic pay raises. As per the Pennsylvania Bulletin, their pay has gone up over $28,000 in the last 10 years. Who in the regular work force gets raises like that?

To our state reps, please pass this bill into law.
