Editorial Notes

Codification Section was formerly classified to section 46a of this title prior to editorial reclassification and renumbering as this section. Section is from Legislative Branch Appropriation Act, 1942, and subsequent Legislative Branch Appropriation Acts.

Amendments2003—Pub. L. 108–7 substituted “$8,000” for “$4,500”. 1975—Pub. L. 94–32 substituted “Effective April 1, 1975, and each fiscal year thereafter” for “Effective with the fiscal year 1972 and thereafter” and “$4,500” for “$3,600”. 1972—Pub. L. 92–607 repealed this section insofar as it related to Senators. For purposes of codification this entailed substituting a period for a comma following “President of the Senate shall be $3,600” and striking out provisions which allowed Senators from $3,600 to $5,000 annually depending on the population of the Senator’s home State. See section 6314 of this title. 1971—Pub. L. 92–184 inserted provision for an increased allowance for Senators from more populous States ranging from $3,800 for Senators from States of from 3,000,000 to 4,999,999 population to $5,000 for Senators from States of 17,000,000 population and over. Pub. L. 92–51 provided allowance for Senators from States having population of ten million or more inhabitants of $4,000 per annum effective fiscal year 1972 and thereafter. 1969—Pub. L. 91–145 increased allowance from $3,000 to $3,600 effective with fiscal year 1970. 1967—Pub. L. 90–21 increased allowance from $2,400 to $3,000 effective with fiscal year 1967. 1964—Pub. L. 88–258 increased allowance from $1,800 to $2,400 effective with fiscal year 1964. 1955—Act Aug. 5, 1955, increased allowance from $1,200 to $1,800. 1953—Act Aug. 1, 1953, increased allowance from $800 to $1,200 effective with fiscal year 1954. 1951—Act Oct. 11, 1951, increased allowance from $500 to $800. 1948—Act June 14, 1948, increased allowance from $400 to $500. 1945—Act June 13, 1945, increased allowance from $200 to $400.
