- W2070885142 abstract "DURING THE 1958 budget session of the California state legislature, an amendment to the state constitution was approved for submission to the voters the following November. This amendment provides that the legislature may raise the salary of its members to a level no higher than the average salary paid to members of the boards of supervisors of the five largest counties in the state. This action transcends in importance the immediate issue of whether one hundred and twenty law-makers should receive an increase in salary. The amount of money involved is a minute portion of the California budget. At present legislative salaries amount to only .036 per cent, or about 1/25 of 1 per cent of the entire state budget.' The increases would amount to only 1/30 to 1/50 of 1 per cent of the budget. Nor is it simply a moral question of whether legislators should be permitted to vote themselves a pay raise. When the problem arises, as it has on several occasions, it has to be faced on its merits. The real importance of this amendment lies in the problem which it dramatizes and the procedure which has been followed to solve it. The problem is one which arises out of the phenomenal growth and changing patterns of economic and social life in the state of California. This development places far greater demands on the legislator and requires constantly higher levels of competence and performance. It is a problem which is not unique to California and yet little effort has been made to study it objectively. In the interests of thorough and objective research to provide a basis for dealing with this problem, the California legislature sought the assistance of a citizens group. In September of 1957 the legislature created the Citizens Legislative Advisory Commission to advise the Joint Committee on Legislative Procedure of the legislature in its deliberations. The Commission undertook as a part of its work the task of seeking some method of determining the nature and extent of the legislator's duties and responsibilities and of recommending rates of compensation and allowances. In the performance of this task the Commission used the services of The Mangore Corporation, a consulting firm made up of faculty members from the School of Public Administration at the University of" @default.
