A resounding no to raises for legislators unless they will be taking away the health benefits from those Legislators whom are now receiving them. Also, I believe average increase for county employees over past four years is about 1.37 percent. If they get any raise at all, it should be comparable to that. Legislators sign up for these jobs knowing what their pay scale is. It should be at that set amount for the term they serve. If they want increases for the next slate of legislators, it should to be tied to what they give their full time employees minus receiving health benefits for part time jobs.
