Pennsylvania Legislature sees the light

And that light was unemployment if they didn't change their ways.

I have written in this blog about the Pennsylvania legislature giving themselves an exorbitant raise and then skirting the state constitution by taking the raises early through unvouchered expenses. Well a funny thing happened. For 4 months the citizens of this good (not great) state pestered and cajoled until last night the entire raise was repealed.

Sometimes it's amazing that we can still have an effect when our representatives are reminded that they need us to keep their jobs.
