H.215 is a bill introduced by Representative Nugent of South Burlington that aims to reform the compensation structure for members of the General Assembly and the Governor in Vermont. The bill proposes to set the salary for General Assembly members at the median wage in Vermont, as determined by the Vermont Department of Labor. Additionally, it allows these members to participate in health insurance and retirement programs that are available to State employees.

Furthermore, the bill establishes a cap on the Governor's salary, stipulating that it cannot exceed 21 times the lowest salary paid to an elected State officer in any given year. This legislation seeks to align the compensation of elected officials with the state's wage standards while also providing them with access to essential benefits.
