Fiscal responsibility
Despite record low approval ratings and the fact that they've done absolutely diddly, House lawmakers Tuesday voted to increase their salaries by $3,300.
The 2 percent cost-of-living raise would be the seventh straight for members of the House and Senate. Lawmakers easily squelched a bid by Rep. Jim Matheson, D-Utah, to get a direct vote to block the COLA, which is automatically awarded unless lawmakers vote to block it.
