Vice President Joe Biden, unlike some of his colleagues in the administration, is currently not planning to donate a portion of his salary to charity or pay back the Treasury as a nod to the pinch of the sequester budget cuts - but he would reconsider if members of his staff eventually face furloughs, his office said Friday.
"The vice president is committed to sharing the burden of the sequester with his staff," Biden's office said in a statement.
On Tuesday, Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel apparently kicked off a trend when he announced that he would return a portion of his salary for each day that Defense Department employees are furloughed. On Wednesday, President Obama himself pledged to return five percent of his $400,000 annual salary to the U.S. Treasury. And on Thursday, Secretary of State John Kerry staged his own demonstration of solidarity, pledging to donate five percent of his salary to treasury
