2024 Legislator Compensation

Legislator compensation varies across legislatures. The lowest annual state legislator salary in 2024 is $100 and the highest annual state legislator salary is $142,000. In 2024, the average annual base salary for a state legislator was $44,320. This is an $827 increase from 2023’s average annual legislator base salary, which represents nearly a 2% growth.

However, salary is only one component of legislator compensation. Each year, NCSL collects data from all 50 states, the U.S. territories, and Washington D.C. on legislative salaries and per diems. The data on salaries, per diems and mileage reimbursement policies can be found in the table below.

For more information on legislator compensation, please visit
Legislative Compensation Resources.


Legislator Compensation Resources 

The amount of money legislators receive for their service—and the process for how those amounts are set—varies by state. NCSL uses several factors to measure legislator compensation, including salary, mileage reimbursement and per diem. Legislator compensation is collected and published annually and biannually. This information is supplemented with additional data on compensation for leaders, insurance and retirement benefits, and office and staffing allowances.

This toolkit provides resources on legislator compensation from the last several years, as well as information on how compensation is determined and how it has changed over time.
