Bill Summary
Sequestration of Pay for Members of Congress Act of 2013 - Reduces the annual rate of pay for each Member of Congress for pay periods after the November 2014 federal general election by 8.2% of the applicable rate in effect for the most recent pay period before such election.
AI Summary
This bill, titled the "Sequestration of Pay for Members of Congress Act of 2013," proposes to reduce the annual salary of every Member of Congress by 8.2%. This pay cut would take effect for pay periods following the federal general election held in November 2014, meaning it would apply to salaries earned after that date. The term "Member of Congress" is defined to include individuals serving in specific positions outlined in the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946, which generally refers to Senators and Representatives. This legislation aims to implement a specific pay reduction for elected officials, distinct from broader budget sequestration measures that might affect other government spending.
