Through the prophet, Malachi, the Lord declares:

Please join me as we bow in prayer:
O God, the members of this Senate are truly very much aware of the blessings we enjoy in this day and time. You continue to pour out Your gifts upon us in wondrous fashion. Yet we also know so clearly, Lord, that not every household and every individual here in our State is able to experience the full benefits of Your grace and Your care. So Lord, bless and guide these Senators and their staff associates as they seek to resolve budget realities in ways that enhance hopefulness for all here in 2014. As always, dear God, be with our troops, wherever they happen to serve; keep them safe and strong. In Your blessed and loving name we pray these things, O Lord. Amen.

Senator JOHNSON spoke on the amendment.
Very briefly, I just want to respond because I know the comment was made by my good friend that we are all not paid the same; but, I want to remind everybody that this was already alluded to. We all have pretty much the same number of constituents which we serve, but some of us are fortunate enough that all of our constituents are in one county or one small geographical area, as has been alluded to already. I have four counties and I think the Senator HUTTO has six counties. And yes when people call I can say "no", but I did not sign up for this position to tell people "no". I serve, as a matter of fact, I have been in public service since I was 23 years old, and a lot of that time has been for no compensation. So it is not about the money, and in my opinion, it is not a pay raise because the amendment says it is expense, and there is expense in serving. It has increased mainly because of the increase in gas prices which are much more than they even were when I was sworn in. I think we need to look at that and I think that those of you who have only one county or part of one county, you are very fortunate. As
I said earlier, we can say, "no", but that is not what they want to hear and the truth of the matter is that when people vote for you, they expect when they come with their hand out as their elected Senator, they want you to help with their causes also. The good thing about this amendment, I disagree with my good friend Senator MASSEY, is because this is different from yesterday because yesterday everybody would have received it. If you are fortunate enough and you don't have a lot of expense by serving your district or if you just don't want to accept the money, then you don't have to. This is an opt in, so everybody can make their choice. If you have increased expenses as some of us do, and you want to accept the fund then you can let the clerk know that, or if you decide for whatever reason that you don't want to, then you don't have to. But we knew that when we filed to run, we knew what the compensation was or the reimbursements were, but I think that we are only being realistic to point out that those expenses have increased.
I worked for the Department of Revenue for 30 years, so I had a lot of knowledge as far as what people earned in certain types of jobs. I don't know of anyone that has gone 20 years without a pay increase, and to be honest there will probably be some, I think most of the folks that I serve will understand that after 20 years or 24 years, however many years it is, I am not afraid to look my folks in the face and say yeah I have accepted more expense money because they know when they call me I am there. When you don't work, like I am retired, you have more free time if that exists, so they expect you to be there even more. Like someone else said earlier, there is no such thing as serving in the Senate or any other public service position that is part time. Someone mentioned before, when we adjourn on the first Thursday in June, we cannot tell our constituents that it is over with until I come back in January. We cannot say that it is 5 o'clock and that I am off; it's the weekend I'm off. So if we do the job right, there is a lot of expenses and as I said people have expectations for us to be there and for us to serve and I think they understand that there are some expenses involved in that. Thank you.

I voted against giving state legislators the option of increasing their monthly allowance by $1,000. The current legislative salary ($10,400) and monthly allowance ($1,000) may be worth revisiting, but Article III, Section 19 of the South Carolina Constitution provides, in part, that "no General Assembly shall have the power to increase the per diem of its own members," which I think means (though I acknowledge such is subject to interpretation) any increase in legislative compensation cannot be effected until AFTER the members of the General Assembly that approved the increase have stood for reelection (and a new General Assembly has been constituted).
