Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 101, introduced by the State Affairs Committee, expresses the Idaho Legislature's decision to reject the compensation rates proposed by the Citizens' Committee on Legislative Compensation. The resolution emphasizes the Legislature's authority to modify compensation rates as outlined in the Idaho Constitution and highlights the need for fiscal responsibility in light of rising costs for essential goods and services faced by Idaho residents.

As a result, the resolution maintains the compensation and expense rates that were in effect during the Sixty-seventh Idaho Legislature, effectively continuing those rates for the upcoming two-year period starting December 1, 2024. It also clarifies that any compensation paid during the interim period from December 1, 2024, until the resolution's effective date will be considered lawful and does not require repayment by legislators.
