The Idaho State Legislature is set to get a 22% raise...

As most of you may know, Idaho has a part time legislature. They are generally in session from early January to early April. You may also know that this doesn't mean they stop working throughout the year.

 

There was a citizen's committee who recommended a pay increase by 43% which is wild. Did you get a 43% raise? Luckily that got shot down to 22% but **that is still too high. **

 

**Have you gotten a 22% pay raise?**

 

Over the past several years, we've railed against various committee chairs for refusing to hear some great bills (looking at you Guthrie, Yamamoto, etc) while other chairs actually did hear great bills (looking at Rep. Brent Crane and some others... thank you!) It's been a mixed bag. However, this pay raise doesn't just reward the good chairs and good legislators, it rewards the bad ones too. They should not be rewarded for keeping good bills in their drawers so we are asking you to use the handy little [**Email Idaho** ]([link removed])tool to let them know that you want a resolution brought forth to stop this pay increase.


Many Idaho families are struggling as grocery, gas and housing costs have gone up under the Biden regime. Idaho's budget has skyrocketed by 55% since Covid (see the above graph...while regulations have gone down, spending has shot up). 

 

We think that before any increase in pay is considered, we need to cut some majorly wasteful spending and get rid of unnecessary programs. While they are at it, they can do something about property tax and grocery tax ***and they shouldn't stop there.***

 

**This isn't just about a 22% increase either. This is also about leadership pay doubling and a pension spike for many who have been there for a LONG time.**
