Anti-Gulf Coast Wage Cut Republicans?

As we reported yesterday, Reps. Ferguson (R-NJ) and Capito (R-WV) seem to be leading up the list of Wage Cut Wigglers, members of Congress unwilling to give their constituents any clear answer on whether or not they support the president’s Gulf Coast Wage Cut.

But Rep. Frank LoBiondo (R-NJ) is circulating a letter among House Republicans calling on the president to rescind the Wage Cut.

TPM Reader MDT found out about the letter this morning when he called the office of Rep. James Walsh (R-NY), whose staffer said the congressman was planning to sign.

We’re waiting to hear more from Rep. LoBiondo’s office. We’ll let you know when we hear.

Is your Rep. a Wiggler? Let us know.
