Freshman State Rep. Kevin Daley (R-Lum) and his wife Debbie are donating 10 percent of the salary he earns as a state lawmaker to eight Lapeer County charities (including Loving Hands).
82nd District Rep. Daley decided to make the donation after the legislature delayed cutting its own pay until 2011.
“I think lawmakers were trying to trick people a little bit by voting for a pay cut that doesn’t take effect for another two years,” Daley said. “Families across the state are being forced to tighten their belt; state government should do the same. I’m trying to do the right thing and lead by example.”
Rather than simply return a portion of his salary to the state treasury, where he wouldn’t have any control over how the money is used, Daley said it would be better to donate to local organizations close to home.
