Debbbie Wasshershitz does it again....
Automatic federal cuts are bringing staffers to the brink of starvation, suggested Debbie Wasserman Schultz, at a recent House Legislative Branch Appropriations Subcommittee hearing.
Restaurants on the House
side of Congress
are increasing in cost so much that aides are being “priced out” of a
good meal, she said, as Fox News reported. The comments came by way of a
discussion about the impacts of the sequester on lawmakers’ office
budgets. Rep. Jim Moran said he may be forced to lay off a staffer — and then Ms. Wasserman Schultz weighed in with her tale of hard times.
Just to clarify: An 8-ounce bowl of Ham and Bean soup at the Cannon Office Building’s
carry-out café costs $2. A gourmet wrap or sliced bread sandwich sells
for about $5. And in the Longworth Building’s sit-down cafeteria, a
serving of stuffed chicken, asparagus and mashed potatoes sells for
about $7, Fox News finds.
Sorry I've been missing, Partners. but between Time-Warner's connections and personal stuff.... it's been a rough few days.... hope it gets better!
