CONGRESSMAN DAVE CAMP PUSHES THROUGH "NO BUDGET NO PAY ACT" FOR CONGRESS

FROM: CONGRESSMAN DAVE CAMP'S WEBSITE
Last week, the President signed into law the "No Budget No Pay Act," authored by Congressman Dave Camp (R-Midland) and Congresswoman Candice Miller (R-Harrison Twp.). The Act’s purpose is simple: if Members of Congress don’t do their jobs to produce a federal budget, they don’t get paid.

For the last two years the House of Representatives has passed a federal budget. However, the Senate has failed to do so for four years in a row – more than 1,300 days have passed without any budget from the Senate. It is time for both chambers of Congress – the House of Representatives and the Senate – to make the tough choices necessary to get Washington spending under control. If employees don’t do their jobs, their employer won’t pay them. It’s time for Congress to start living by that same simple rule.
