Boston City Council pay cuts would lead to more City Hall corruption, Sharon Durkan says -
from boston herald Boston City Councilor Sharon Durkan suggested that pulling back Council raises would lead to more corruption on the body like the recent federal bust of ex-Councilor Tania Fernandes Anderson for a $7,000 kickback scheme. Durkan joined the majority of her colleagues in Wednesday’s 9-3 vote against a Council resolution that called for clawing back all raises included in 2022 legislation — $43,000 for Mayor Michelle Wu and $21,500 total for the Council. The defeated measure was aimed at restoring some of the proposed budget cuts. you could probably add a referendum to every election asking to eith raise or cut salaries by 5% - but that might be too democratic -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
