Retiring Type
Rep. Jo Bonner, R-Ala., says it's just not true that members of Congress get cushy retirement packages. He tries to make the case in his column in the Atmore Advance that he's just like any other civil servant, paying into the Federal Employee Retirement System and Social Security. It's "completely untrue," he adds, "that members of Congress, during their retirement, will receive 100 percent of their full salary."
