Lauren Boebert pushes to slash salary of  'troll' government worker who criticized her

Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO) introduced legislation that singles out a senior federal official for retribution.

The Colorado Republican introduced an amendment to a funding bill that would cut the salary of Melissa Schwartz, who works as director of communications in the office of Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland, to $1 as punishment for criticizing her, reported Newsweek.

"Melissa Schwartz is yet another horrendous and miserable use of taxpayer dollars," Boebert said on the House floor.
