Salary hike proposed for Maryland Governor in 1979
The Maryland governor’s salary would rise from 25000 to 60000 a year starting 1979 after a gubernatorial salary commission recommendation. The increase, automatic unless halted by both houses, drew a senate challenge but failed by voice vote. The House has not acted, with leaders signaling little support to cut the 60000 bonus.
