TITLE 2--THE CONGRESS
CHAPTER 4--OFFICERS AND EMPLOYEES OF SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES
Sec. 61-1. Gross rate of compensation of employees paid by
Secretary of Senate
(a) Annual rate; certification
(1) Whenever the rate of compensation of any employee whose
compensation is disbursed by the Secretary of the Senate is fixed or
adjusted on or after October 1, 1980, such rate as so fixed or adjusted
shall be at a single whole dollar per annum gross rate and may not
include a fractional part of a dollar.
(2) New or changed rates of compensation (other than changes in
rates which are made by law) of any such employee (other than an
employee who is an elected officer of the Senate) shall be certified in
writing to the Disbursing Office of the Senate (and, for purposes of
this paragraph, a new rate of compensation refers to compensation in the
case of an appointment, transfer from one Senate appointing authority to
another, or promotion by an appointing authority to a position the
compensation for which is fixed by law). In the case of an appointment
or other new rate of compensation, the certification must be received by
such office on or before the day the rate of new compensation is to
become effective. In any other case, the changed rate of compensation
shall take effect on the first day of the month in which such
certification is received (if such certification is received within the
first ten days of such month), on the first day of the month after the
month in which such certification is received (if the day on which such
certification is received is after the twenty-fifth day of the month in
which it is received), and on the sixteenth day of the month in which
such certification is received (if such certification is received after
the tenth day and before the twenty-sixth day of such month).
Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, if the certification for a
changed rate of compensation for an employee specifies an effective date
of such change, such change shall become effective on the date so
specified, but only if the date so specified is the first or sixteenth
day of a month and is after the effective date prescribed in the
preceding sentence; and, notwithstanding such sentence and the preceding
provisions of this sentence, any changed rate of compensation for a new
employee or an employee transferred from one appointing authority to
another shall take effect on the date of such employee's appointment or
transfer (as the case may be) if such date is later than the effective
date for such changed rate of compensation as prescribed by such
sentence.
(b) Conversion; increase in compensation
The rate of compensation of each employee whose compensation is
disbursed by the Secretary of the Senate which was fixed before August
1, 1967, at a basic rate with respect to which additional compensation
is payable by law shall be converted as of such date to the lowest per
annum gross rate which is a multiple of $180 and which is not less than
the aggregate rate of compensation (basic compensation plus additional
compensation provided by law) which such employee was receiving
immediately prior to such date. Any increments of longevity compensation
to which an employee became entitled prior to August 1, 1967, under
section 60j(b) of this title shall be excluded in converting such
employee's rate of compensation under this subsection, but such
employee's rate of gross compensation shall be increased by $540 (which
shall be considered to be an increase under section 60j(b) of this
title) for each such increment.
(c) Reference in other provisions to basic rates and additional
compensation as reference to per annum gross rate
In any case in which the rate of compensation of any employee or
position, or class of employees or positions, the compensation for which
is disbursed by the Secretary of the Senate, or any maximum or minimum
rate with respect to any such employee, position, or class, is referred
to in or provided by statute or Senate resolution, and the rate so
referred to or provided is a basic rate with respect to which additional
compensation is provided by law, such statutory provision or resolution
shall be deemed to refer, in lieu of such basic rate, to the per annum
gross rate which an employee receiving such basic rate immediately prior
to August 1, 1967, would receive (without regard to such statutory
provision or resolution) under subsection (b) of this section on and
after such date.
(d) Compensation of employees in office of Senator; limitation; titles
of positions

For any fiscal year, the population of a State shall be deemed to be
whichever of the following is the higher:
(I) the population of such State (as determined for purposes of
this paragraph) for the preceding fiscal year; or
(II) the population of such State as of the first day of such
fiscal year, as determined by the latest census (provisional or
otherwise) conducted prior to such first day by the Bureau of the
Census within the Department of Commerce.
If the population of any State, as determined under the preceding
sentence, is not evenly divisible by 1,000,000, the population of such
State shall be deemed to be increased to the next higher multiple of
1,000,000.
If, for any period after a fiscal year has begun, the census figures
of the most recent census conducted prior to the first day of such year
have not been officially released, then, for such period, in the
administration of this paragraph, it shall be assumed that the
population of each State is the same as such State's population (as
determined for purposes of this paragraph) for the preceding fiscal
year.
In the event that the term of office of a Senator begins after the
first month of a fiscal year or ends (except by reason of death,
resignation, or expulsion) before the last month of a fiscal year, the
aggregate amount available for gross compensation of employees in the
office of such Senator for such year shall be the applicable amount

number of months in such year which are included in the Senator's term
of office, counting any fraction of a month as a full month.

office of a Senator for the period commencing January 1, 1988, and
ending September 30, 1988, the total of--
(i) the aggregate amount of gross compensation which is paid to
employees in the office of such Senator for such period, plus
(ii) the expenses paid to or on behalf of such Senator under
authority of section 58 of this title (as determined after
application of subsection (b) of such section, but without regard to
paragraph (2)(A)(iv) thereof),
shall not exceed the aggregate of--
(iii) subject to the next sentence, the amount by which (I) the
aggregate of the gross compensation which may be paid to employees
in the office of such Senator for the fiscal year ending September
30, 1988, as determined under this subsection (but without regard to
this subparagraph), exceeds (II) the aggregate amount of gross
compensation which is paid to employees in the office of such
Senator for that part of such fiscal year which precedes January 1,
1988, plus
(iv) the amount described in section 58(b)(2)(A)(iii) of this
title.
In the event that the term of office of a Senator begins after the first
month of the period which commences January 1, 1988, and ends September
30, 1988, or ends (except by reason of death, resignation, or expulsion)
before the last month of such period, the amount computed pursuant to
clause (iii) of this subparagraph (but before application of this
sentence) shall be recalculated as follows: such amount, as so computed,
shall be divided by 9, and multiplied by the number of months in such
period which are included in the Senator's term of office, counting any
fraction of a month as a full month.
(C) In the case of gross compensation paid to employees in the
office of a Senator for the fiscal year beginning October 1, 1988, or
any fiscal year thereafter, the total of--
(i) the aggregate amount of gross compensation which is paid to

(iii) the amount determined under subparagraph (A) for such
year, plus
(iv) the amount described in section 58(b)(3) of this title (as
determined without regard to subparagraph (A)(ii) and (iv) thereof).
(2) Within the limits prescribed by paragraph (1) of this
subsection, Senators may fix the number and the rates of compensation of
employees in their respective offices. The salary of an employee in a
Senator's office shall not be fixed under this paragraph at a rate less
than $2,124 or in excess of $150,159 per annum. A Senator may establish
