since they aren't really paid that much, and they have to be fairly wealthy to even represent Texas, I doubt they give a shit

If they have to collect their paychecks in person, then how are they, going to get their overdraft protection of $200 with their cash app accounts?

Why don't they deserve their check and requesting in person is a vindictive evil move by cripple Greg Abbott and his racist posse. Did Ted Cruz and Greg Abbott have to pick up checks? This is just a little butthurt Greg Abbott's request. When they ran off during the ice storm did they pick up checks? Did you forget? trump's idiots are doing his silly bidding. 🥰

They don't live paycheck to paycheck like the rest of us. All politicians are so disconnected from the voters.

They only earn $7200 a year as a legislator. With the per diem they earn during session, which occurs only in odd years, their salary will reach only $30,000 annually. Legislators normally have a profession that is the true source of their livelihood. So this isn’t the big drama the media or the Republicans are making it out to be.

So since the FBI can’t pick them up they holding their pay 💰. I don’t think that’s legal. But I think there is a law holding someone pay. Unless that’s a new rule they voted on. I guess we’ll find out.
