Second letter to Congressman Webster

Rep. Daniel Webster
United States Congress
1039 Longworth House Office Building
Washington, DC 20515

Rep. Webster:

Here is my check for the week. Please send it to the appropriate location for principal debt reduction.

I am so disappointed that you have not responded to my “challenge” and that you have not requested your colleagues do the same.

For example, 432 congressmen make the same, $174,000, the Speaker $223.500 and the majority and minority leaders $193,400. This would come to a total of $757,783.

In the Senate, assuming similar income would come to $119,981. The President, $400,000 for $4,000.

This would be a total applied to the principal debt of $872,764.

A drop in the bucket, maybe, but how many other Americans would be willing to do this. I guess we’ll never know unless Congress takes the lead. How bout the Cabinet, the Supreme Court, Congressional staffers, State leaders……
