The title is misleading. "The raises appear to be an unintended consequence of the shutdown: When lawmakers failed to pass bills Dec. 21 to fund multiple federal agencies, they allowed an existing pay freeze to lapse. The pay freeze for top federal executives was enacted by Congress in 2013 and renewed each year since then. The raises will occur because that cap will expire on Saturday without legislative action, allowing raises to kick in that have accumulated over those years but never took effect." They could not pass a funding bill was the direct cause of the raise. So, in short President Trump did not give any of them a raise. Unfortunately, the Senate, the House, and the rest of them get a check while others don't. What is even more insulting is people like the buffoon Warren who stated she had 7000 government employees out of work, yet donates her salary to refugees. And what people have not been saying is that since President Trump has taken office, he has donated his Presidential salary to organizations like the National Park Service, the U.S. Education Department, the Transportation Department, the Department of Health and Human Services, and the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Oh, because Congress failed to pass another piece of legislation? Just what does Congress really do?
