Complaint Filed On Legislator Pay Hike
An unidentified citizen filed a complaint with the Economic Stabilization Board over the 1971 pay raise for legislators from 2500 to 3500 for a regular session. Deputy Attorney General West questioned whether lawmakers are state employees and suggested the arrangement seems incongruous. Painter awaits a decision but notes that if lawmakers’ time falls under a 2.75 per hour threshold they might be exempt from Pay Board rules. The raise would take effect January 3 with the 106th Legislature convening.
