My plan for State legislature reform; among other things,
1. Change from part time to full time (or year round).
2. Increase legislators’ salary, matched to full time status.
3. Find a better way to help special interests, but monitor their activities more closely.

One reason.

I have somehow sensed legislators might have been vulnernable to manipulations (e.g. bribes) by special interests, due to their part time status and less money they earned from the position.

The fiscal burden, due to increase in legislators’ salary, may not be that much; because I believe, through legislators and legislations, special interests might have already utilized (misused?) government money (budget) for their benefits in one way or another.

After all, we may be able to control the corruption without much extra fiscal burden on government.

(This reform may be dearly needed for the purpose of having legislators less corrupted.)

Aloha.
