So even though the article clearly states that the budget isn't being increased because of GOP staff salaries, Lief feels the need to make yet another hack statement. Not surprising.
You miss the point. Because of the rise of democratic lawmakers, additional staff is necessary to accommodate new members. However, if the GOP lost a number of members and maintains the same staff levels, they do not lessen the money they are using. So while they aren't demanding more money, proportionally they should be receiving less money.
Yeah, I misread the title. My apologies.
