The post states that Congress would get a 40% pay increase. That is incorrect. Per the Congressional Research Service, the maximum potential increase in January would be 3.8%, providing a salary of $180,600, up by $6,600, according to CRS. https://www.marketwatch.com/story/bill-to-prevent-government-shutdown-includes-raise-for-congress-itsthe-first-pay-hike-in-16-years-4c06b8e7 https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/12/18/congress/congress-pay-raise-increase-00195089

Original Tweet

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1869416892894490641

Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
