Too bad, but Congressmen can buy their lunch.
As much as they insist, I will not allocate resources from the House for the lunch of 187 Representatives.
It is true that we are having long work sessions. But that’s what they pay us for.

With this type of cuts, the president of the House hopes that in 4 years he will have “a group of people who are really inspired by their work, and are willing to do it for the privilege that representing the citizenry entails.”
If we advance in dismantling privileges for Congressmen, in 4 years we will have there a group of people who are truly inspired by their work, and are willing to carry it out for the privilege that representing the citizenry entails.
