Great post, Maj Marty Hogan. One of the first twelve amendments proposed in 1789 was only ratified in 1992 (now the 27th amendment). This action prohibited any law that increases or decreases the salary of members of Congress from taking effect until the start of the next set of terms of office for Representatives (since all appropriations originate in the House). Thanks for the history reminder!
