Idaho Senate rejects legislator pay raises
BOISE — The Idaho Senate voted to reject pay raises for themselves that were previously set by a citizens' committee.
Sen. Christy Zito, R-Mountain Home, sponsored Senate Concurrent Resolution 101, which rejected the Citizens’ Committee on Legislative Compensation’s adopted pay raise of about $5,087 a year to set legislator salaries at $25,000. If the resolution passes the House, lawmakers’ salaries would go back to where they were at $19,913 annually.
