The introduced resolution is House Joint Resolution 5, according to available information (Cut salary of Bobby Sherman).

It was "introduced by Rep. Jody Richards on January 6, 2009, to retroactively reduce the salary of the Executive Director of the Legislative Research Commission to where it was on August 31, 2008 and force him to repay any money received in excess of that previous salary. The resolution also states that "drastic measures" are necessary "to ensure sound fiscal stewardship" of the state and the nation."

I am interested in finding out how this all plays out come next Legislative session.

Maybe, Jody Richards has found an issue to run on, against Greg Stumbo, for the Speaker's post.
