OR Legislators insensitive to depressed economy To the Editor In a lime when many Oregonians are accepting cuts in pay and benefits, it seems that our legi slative assembly may have been somewhat insensitive in raising their salaries In fact, as a former member of the Oregon legislature. I was appalled at the exorbitant pay raise which legislators gave them selves during the last session The depressed Oregon economy calls for belt tightening, not fattening sala ries at this time With almost no publicity, legi stators raised their base salaries, which they receive 12 months each year, by over 28 percent From the I70U before the session, they upped their monthly salaries in three step* reaching $9(il m January 1987 In addition, they approved a raise from Moo to Mon per month in their expense allowance when not in session, plus a raise in daily per diem when in session or committee meetings from MS to $50, and added a special allowance of up to $150 monthly for larger districts On top of this pay. members on joy- such perquisites as free residential phone service, paid medical and dental insurance for the member and family, paid life and disability insurance, fully paid enrollment in the Public Employees Retirement System, and their spouses may draw up to $2.uoo per month during sessions for serving as the staff member Oregon has always operated on the concept of a "citizen legisla lure, coming together as a public service during legislative sessions, and then returning to their farms, jobs or business W ith total pay for the biennium nearing $35.
