Original Note:
This is a misinterpretation of the bill proposal in question. Congressional salaries would only rise to 243k if all cost of living adjustments not implemented since 1992 were to be implemented. The CR would only lead to an increase of 3,6% (around 6000 dollars) up to 180k. https://www.politico.com/live-updates/2024/12/18/congress/congress-pay-raise-increase-00195089 https://crsreports.congress.gov/product/pdf/RS/97-1011
