The resolution requests the House Committee on House and Governmental Affairs to conduct a comprehensive study of the salary structures for state and local elected officials and university administrators in Louisiana. The aim is to ensure that these officials are adequately compensated and to compare their salaries with those of similar positions in other states, particularly focusing on southern states. The study will include a thorough examination of all compensation aspects and will utilize resources such as studies from the National Conference of State Legislatures and the Council of State Governments.
Furthermore, the resolution mandates that the House Committee report its findings and recommendations to the House of Representatives before the start of the 2026 Regular Session. This initiative underscores the importance of evaluating and potentially adjusting the salary structures to align with best practices and ensure fair compensation for public officials and university leaders in Louisiana.
