HCR 4: LEGISLATIVE COMPENSATION – States findings of the Legislature and provides that individual legislative members may donate all or a portion of their compensation to the tax relief fund.

HCR 4 is a concurrent resolution allowing Idaho legislators to voluntarily donate all or part of their annual salary ($25,000 base) to the state's Tax Relief Fund (established under Idaho Code §57-811). It directly affects Idaho state legislators who choose to redirect their compensation, rather than changing their pay rate. The resolution explains the recent salary increase (from $19,913 to $25,000) and notes legislators may opt to return funds to taxpayers via the existing Tax Relief Fund. It does not require donations or alter legislative pay structure, only provides a voluntary option for members who wish to contribute.

SCR 101: LEGISLATIVE COMPENSATION – States findings of the Legislature and rejects the rate of legislative compensation set by the Citizens’ Committee on Legislative Compensation.

Idaho's SCR 101 rejects the compensation rates set by the Citizens' Committee on Legislative Compensation for the 2025-2026 legislative term. The resolution continues the previous compensation levels from the 67th Legislature instead of adopting the new rates, stating the legislature must prioritize fiscal responsibility amid rising costs for Idaho residents. This action directly affects Idaho state legislators by maintaining their current pay structure without adjustments. The bill does not change how legislators are paid but formally rejects the proposed increase.
