Sen. Greg Brophy today proposed cutting $150,000 from legislative salaries - a 5 percent cut.
But there could be a hitch. Since the two-year general assembly has already started, it's technically unconstitutional to cut their own pay at this point. The provisions are meant to keep lawmakers from boosting their own paychecks mid-term.
But Brophy didn't flinch at the news.
"So sue me to make me take my money back," he said in a caucus meeting.
