Congress does not vote on COLAs. It is set by a fixed formula based on the CPI (comsumer price index). There was no increase in the 2009 CPI, therefore no COLA increase for 2010.

It would be nice if others checked their facts before spreading misinformation. HINT: You may have to go to other sources besides FOX NEWS to get actual facts.
