Target: The House of Representatives and Senate of the United States

Petition text:
We, the undersigned, hereby call upon each and every member of congress to cast a vote against any measure to increase their salaries, staff and office budgets, as well as personal expense limits, and currently allocated per diem expenses.

If such a vote or votes come before Congress at any point during the sessions between January 2009 and January 2011 we demand that they reject it and we demand that they repeal the automatic 2.8% increase currently given to members of the House of Representatives and the Senate.

Furthermore, we, the undersigned also demand that during this same time frame, no automatic adjustments for inflation or other costs of living be made for federal office holders.
