H.215 proposes to establish the compensation rate for members of the General Assembly based on the median wage in Vermont, as determined by the Vermont Department of Labor. Additionally, the bill allows General Assembly members to participate in health insurance and retirement programs available to State employees.

Furthermore, the bill sets a maximum salary for the Governor, stipulating that it cannot exceed 21 times the lowest salary paid to an elected State officer in any given year. This legislation aims to align the compensation of elected officials with state wage standards and enhance their benefits.
