Santo Domingo.- Three of Dominican Republic’s most prominent senators Tuesday night called the amendments submitted to the bill Government Wage Regulatory Bill unconstitutional, and predicted its rejection.
The ruling PLD party lawmakers rebuke the amendment that excludes the Members of Congress, the Central Bank and other agencies from the proposed salary caps.
Senators Tommy Galan-San Cristobal, Euclides Sanchez- La Vega and Jose Rafael Vargas-Espaillat, separately agreed that the lawmakers shouldn’t legislate for personal gain
Galan called the deputies’ amendment "imprudent because if we’re regulating the wages of all government administration sectors we can’t exclude ourselves to our benefit. That's inappropriate."
Sanchez said with their attitude the deputies didn’t take into account the harm they cause to their image and to the Congress. “With this action we’re telling the country that we’re more concerned with our personal benefit than the majorities we legislate for.”
Vargas said by excluding Congress from the Salary Regulation, the legislators relinquish the authority to ask any sacrifice from the population whose result could benefit the majorities.

Editorial
“The National Congress and the disorder of the Wages Act”
“Excluded from the Act were numerous institutions which are precisely those that have given rise to the wage disorder that exists, and that with this law was to resolve, who have establish in a disproportionate manner, remuneration, wages, representation expenses, credit cards, school loans, fuels, among others”
"The National Congress has committed a terrible act of disloyalty with Leonel Fernández and Danilo Medina. The intent was to correct the very serious issue of salaries in the Public Sector administration, and thus the issue was raised by the Ministry of Administration and Personnel, when they submitted the proposed for the law."
Continued:
"The first the Senate and then Chamber of Deputies took it upon the themselves disfigure the proposal and to legislate illegally in their own favor, establishing new advantages for the legislative work relating to salaries, allowances and other benefits for performance of those function, euphemistically called service."
"Excluded from the law were numerous institutions which are precisely those that have given rise to this wage disorder that exists, and that this law wanted to resolve, setting disproportionate remuneration, salaries, representation expenses, credit cards, school credits, fuels, among others, leaving out a large universe of the personnel that serves in public administration."
