Commission urges pay change to keep citizen legislators
An interim Study commission chaired by H Pat Taylor recommends a new legislative pay scale to preserve citizen lawmakers. The plan pays 1500 per month for the first four months of each biennium and 100 per month thereafter, aiming to limit sessions to the high paid months and reduce conflicts of interest. Taylor argues higher pay does not attract different professionals and that legislators represent voter attitudes even if they hold other jobs.
