The Citizens Commission on Legislative Pay urged Kansas legislators receive a two year pay rise from $7,150 to $11,650 plus higher per diem and expense allowances. The plan, approved unanimously by former Gov. John Anderson, would take effect in the session after enactment, likely 1973, with per day salary rising from $10 to $30 and per day expense funds from $25 to $35 while the monthly between sessions allowance stays at $100.
