He’s not alone: AOC and others have argued lawmakers should be paid more in order to protect against corruption and make the job more accessible.

    Representatives don’t need to own a home in DC.

    The president doesn’t own the White House, it comes with the position and goes to the next person elected after they serve their term.

    There is no reason the state can’t own property in DC that comes with use during service.

      That’s actually not a bad idea in principal but would you want to live in a place after Matt Gaetz?
