Jindal Broke Campaign Promise on Pay Raise

Boy, oh boy, is Bobby Jindal in trouble. C.B. Forgotston has dug up a Jindal campaign brochure (it’s not clear from what year) that promises to:

MAKE THE LEGISLATURE ACCOUNTABLE TO THE CITIZENS THEY REPRESENT:

Prohibit Legislators from giving themselves pay raises that take effect before the subsequent elections.

Any increase in salary approved by the Legislature should take effect after the next election so the public can decide who deserves that compensation.

Why then won’t Jindal veto the pay raise legislation?

Great work C.B.
