## Summary

**Ends automatic annual pay increases for Members of Congress.** This bill would repeal the statutory automatic adjustment that ties Member pay to private-sector wage growth measured by the Employment Cost Index and limited by General Schedule increases, and it would make technical edits so future pay changes must be enacted by law.

## Provisions PRIA read

- No more automatic congressional raises: cost, medium. This bill would end automatic pay increases for Members of Congress. If enacted, future pay changes for Members would need a law passed by Congress. The bill also makes technical renumbering and wording changes and would take effect when the 120th Congress convenes.
