what extra does it cost for them to sleep in their office?The only reason I care is that as Congressmen, they are not entitled to any additional privledges that other Americans are offered
I know of no zoning that allows workers to live in their workspace. I imagine DC is the same. There are millions of Americans who struggle paycheck to paycheck and they are not allowed to live in their place of work.
It is not like they have no alternatives. College students in tough financial situations find roomates. No reason that these Congressmen can't share an apartment for $400 a month each.
What extra does it cost a college student to sleep in the classrooms? I'm sure many would do it if it saves $400 a month
And no school would open themselves up to the liability of letting students sleep in the classrooms. As far as I know a congressman can't sue us if he trips in his office at night.
