Okay, public is trying to do something for the normal, middle class families who were victims of the Navy yard shooting but thr Senate can do this.... 3. LATE SENATORS WIDOW For decades of service: Frank Lautenberg served in the Senate for almost 30 years. He died in June of viral pneumonia. This nation owed him a great deal. Congress has almost always approved a death benefit gift to the family equal to one years salary, which they provided for Lautenbergs widow, Bonnie, in the bill. The thing is ... Lautenberg was one of the richest members of Congress and was worth more than $59 million as of 2011, according to The Hill. You can see why some people think it might not be a terrible thing to forgo $174,000 to the family. We need to be outraged!
