The bill amends R.S. 18:423(E) concerning the compensation of members of parish boards of election supervisors in Louisiana. It increases the maximum number of days for which members can be compensated from six to seven days for general election duties, and from eight to nine days specifically for presidential or regularly scheduled or special congressional elections. Additionally, it maintains the compensation rate of one hundred fifty dollars per day for election-related duties and fifty dollars per day for court appearances as subpoenaed witnesses.
The provisions of the bill will take effect only when a specific appropriation of funds for its implementation is enacted by the Louisiana Legislature. The bill will also become effective upon the governor's signature or, if not signed, after the designated period for bills to become law without a signature, as outlined in the Louisiana Constitution. If the governor vetoes the bill and it is later approved by the legislature, the provisions will take effect the day after that approval.
