You have to just Love her~

[sheshe2]

Tammy Duckworth, Freshman Representative out of Illinois pledged back in February to return a portion of her salary if the sequester happened. As far as I can tell, she was the first to step up in this way (followed by Hagel & Prez).

House members earn $174k anually - Ms Duckworth will return 8.4% - roughly $14,500

1. I am a big fan of Tammy.

[Wait Wut]

2. No kidding.

She's one of those people that makes me feel like a failure. Like I had a purpose in life, but got lazy.

The lady gives me chills.

3. This veteran should put many to shame just for everything about her.

[sheshe2]

8. I just love that picture!

So full of life and energy!

Thanks lunatica.

4. ..AND to think the RW idiots tried to shame her for being such a exhibitionist for votes n/t

[freshwest]

5. That looks like a dash across the stage. What an amazing woman!

[sheshe2]

6. Oh she is, freshwest!

She should make a trip to Boston, she would be inspiring to the amputees!

[freshwest]

7. That she would! I'd like to see her with them, although

there is that great veterans' group already on hand to help them - I wish all people had such support. Kudos to all, and keep on Boston Strong. We are rejoicing in your love.

9. Love Tammy. Our congress critter, Dave Loebsack has returned a portion of his salary also.

Not sure what portion he designated
Anyway a good move for both.

10. Wow.. thanks for the pic and story on Rep Tammy Duckworth,

she!

Bless her heart and spirit for shining light on "the sequester" that hurts so many people.

11. Why, how dare she flaunt her military service and heroism by.....walking!

(paraphrasing Ahole Joe Walsh)

13. I

was enraged at that ahole during election time. But, the better person came out on top. She and Elizabeth Warren give me some measure of hope.

12. She gives me hope for America.. I love this woman

what a replacement for that low life slime Joe Walsh, may we never speak of him again.
