Full title

To prohibit an increase in the compensation of Members of Congress from taking effect unless Congress consents to the increase by concurrent resolution.

Key: what the circles and colors mean

Each circle is a bill. The ring fills as it moves through Congress:

IntroducedPassed one chamberPassed both chambersBecame law (gold)Resolution agreed to (full, dark)Failed or vetoed (gray)

Under the number: the Yea · Nay count of its final (or latest) recorded vote. On a member's page, the small badge is how that member voted: Y Yea / Aye, N Nay / No, P Present, – Not voting.

Gold and violet are only for Yea and Nay; they never mean a party. A member's party is the letter on their photo.

Never voted on. It didn't reach a floor vote before the 112th Congress ended, so it expired. A bill has to be introduced again to be considered in a new Congress.

No cosponsors.

Amends the Legislative Reorganization Act of 1946 to prohibit the pay for Members of Congress from being increased by any adjustment scheduled to take effect in a calendar year unless, before January 1 of such year, each chamber, by a roll call vote, adopts a concurrent resolution agreeing to such increase.
