Pritzker to sign legislator pay raise in state budget that some say is unconstitutional – Center Square

Article IV, section 11 of the Illinois Constitution dealing with the legislature states, “A member shall receive a salary and allowances as provided by law, but changes in the salary of a member shall not take effect during the term for which he has been elected.” The Illinois Constitution also states the governor may reduce or veto any item of appropriations sent to his desk.
