Legislator per diem.
This bill increases Wyoming legislators' daily expense allowance from $109 to $155, effective July 1, 2023. It requires annual adjustments based on U.S. General Services Administration rates and appropriates $125,000 to cover this increase for legislators. Additionally, it allocates $75,000 to supplement per diem rates for state board, commission, and council members whose pay is tied to the legislators' rate, with all funding expiring June 30, 2024. The changes directly affect state legislators and certain state entity members paid from general funds.
