According to the LA Times the majority of California senators agreed to pay cuts during the current budget crisis. Ok, this is not really going to help much with our budget deficit but in times like these symbolism matters.It is shocking that only a majority agreed to this pay cut. Why wasn't it unanimous? I realize these senators have families and bills like anyone else but when so many other state jobs are being hacked or cut back these lawmakers need to step up and take one for the team despite whether or not they have refused raises or taken cuts in the past.
