Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 101, introduced by the State Affairs Committee, expresses the Idaho Legislature's decision to reject the compensation rates set by the Citizens' Committee on Legislative Compensation. The resolution emphasizes the Legislature's authority to modify compensation rates as outlined in the Idaho Constitution. It highlights the current economic challenges faced by Idaho residents, such as rising costs for essential goods and services, and asserts the need for fiscal responsibility by prioritizing the needs of the public over increased government spending and legislator pay.

As a result of this resolution, the compensation rates established by the Citizens' Committee for the two-year period starting December 1, 2024, will not be implemented. Instead, the compensation and expenses that were in effect during the Sixty-seventh Idaho Legislature will continue. The resolution also clarifies that any compensation paid between December 1, 2024, and the resolution's effective date will be considered lawful and does not require repayment by legislators.
