LC 4260 Legislature · 2025 Regular Session

Generally revise salaries for certain elected officials

This bill updates the salary adjustment process for Montana's elected state officials, including the state auditor, governor, and attorney general. It requires the Department of Administration to compare Montana officials' salaries with those of similar positions in neighboring states like North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, and Idaho. If the average salary in those states is higher, Montana officials' pay will automatically increase to match that average starting July 1 of the following year. The changes specifically apply to the state auditor's salary beginning January 1, 2028, while other officials covered by the law will see adjustments on the standard schedule.
