"House Republicans have made it a top priority this year to secure cuts to nearly every federal government program, spending months taking aim at welfare programs in order to allow millions of Americans to starve and languish. But in the latest draft of their 2024 spending bill that is moving through the chamber, Republicans are seeking to raise spending for one key group: themselves.
Under the legislative branch spending bill approved by the House Appropriations Committee last month, House members would receive a 4.6 percent pay raise, according to the Congressional Research Service, reports Roll Call. This would be an $8,000 raise over their current salaries of $174,000."
