Letter to Phillip G. Kiko, Chief Administrative Officer - Gianforte Requests House to Withhold His Salary During Shutdown

Letter

Date: Jan. 3, 2019
Location: Washington, DC

Dear Mr. Kiko,

I have been informed that members of Congress will continue to receive their salary despite the ongoing, partial government shutdown.

I strongly believe it is inappropriate for members of Congress to be paid while portions of the federal government remain shut down.

I ask that you please withhold my salary for as long as the shutdown lasts and until the agents who protect our borders and other federal employees are paid.

Please let me know if you have any questions

Sincerely,

Greg Gianforte
Member of Congress
