GILLIBRAND: I haven't been in Washington long, but I've been there long enough to know that things are broken. That's why I've made transparency and accountability a top priority. I was the first member of Congress to post my official schedule, personal financial disclosures, and the tax money I request for New York on the internet. And I took on my own party to end automatic pay raises for Congress. I'm Kirsten Gillibrand and I approve this message, because people who work for a living can't raise their own pay, and Congress shouldn't either.
