One government employee isn't worried about her paycheck during the partial government shutdown: House Rep. Nancy Pelosi.
The Washington Free Beacon reports:
Democratic House leader Nancy Pelosi is spending the government shutdown at a luxury resort in Hawaii, the Washington Free Beacon has learned.
Pelosi, who has put blame squarely on President Donald Trump for the current government shutdown, was spotted Thursday vacationing in Hawaii at the Fairmont Orchid resort, where room accommodations range from $899-a-night for a standard room to $4,899-a-night for the presidential suite.
The resort, on Hawaii's Big Island, features a golf course, six restaurants, and a 10,000-square-foot oceanfront pool. It also features a "Spa Without Walls," where the 110-minute Ali'i Royal Experience is available for $369 and a 50-minute couples massage runs $549, according to the spa menu. While at the spa, guests can snack on a gluten-free grilled prawn summer roll for $19.
Our federal officials have forgotten their place. They're supposed to serve We the People, not spend national crises at luxury resorts.
It's time to give them a wake-up call they'll never forget.
Article V of the Constitution allows the people, acting through the states, to call a Convention of States for the "purpose of proposing amendments."
These amendments can limit the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, mandate term limits for career politicians like Pelosi, and impose fiscal restraints on Congress.
With these amendments in place, congresspeople, judges, and presidents will never forget who's really supposed to be in charge of this country.
