The automatic pay raise for Pennsylvania lawmakers made law in 1995 kicked in Dec.1 which means that the average Pennsylvania legislator salary is now at $84.012. It's basically a $17 a month raise or about $200 per year. It certainly will help ease the burden of the eventual 28 cents per gallon gas tax they just passed.
