Committee approves pay increase for special prosecutors and staff
Summary
House Bill 35, proposing pay increases for special prosecutors and staff with inflation adjustments, was passed by the committee without recorded opposition.
Representative Jordan Ridley presented House Bill 35, a bill to raise pay for special prosecutors and related staff and to provide annual inflation adjustments. The committee acknowledged having considered the bill previously and proceeded to a motion and voice vote to pass the measure to rules.
Representative Ridley summarized the bill as increasing pay to $2.50 an hour for special prosecutors and up to $1.10 for staff at the discretion of the appointing authority, with yearly adjustments for inflation. Committee members asked no recorded questions before voting to approve the measure for the rules calendar.
The committee’s action does not appropriate funds; the bill’s fiscal effects would be resolved in subsequent committee and appropriations steps if it advances.
