Barbara Boxer said "I am troubled by the committee suggesting that their new policy would cap pay at $350,000. I understand that my colleague has a chart which shows different analyses of that, because I greatly question it. Last year, we thought we were capping it at $250,000, and people got $4 million. I wonder if my friend can share with us that chart, which shows opinions other than the committee's opinion on where these caps will actually fall--not at $350,000, but more into the millions." @ PoliticalQuotes.com
