An Act restricting additional compensation for members of the General Court holding more than one lucrative office
This bill restricts Massachusetts state legislators from receiving additional pay while holding another paid elected position. It prohibits members of the General Court from earning extra compensation under sections 9B (salary) or 9C (expenses) if they simultaneously hold any other "lucrative" elected office (defined as one with attached compensation), except for town meeting member roles. The law directly affects legislators who serve in multiple paid local or state elected positions. It creates a clear rule that dual office-holding does not entitle them to supplementary state pay beyond their primary role.
