State Legislators Taking Voluntary Pay Cuts

Twelve state House members have volunteered to take a pay cut. Only one of them is from the North Olympic Peninsula. Kevin Van De Wege has opted for a five percent pay reduction.

Today's online poll question at the PDN is: "Should state legislators voluntarily send back 3% to 10% of their pay to the state?"

With 922 votes cast, 88.1% voted Yes; 9.2% said No; and 2.7% were Undecided.
