Abolishes compensation for New Hampshire legislators, replacing it with mileage reimbursement.

The bill proposes to amend the New Hampshire constitution to abolish the current compensation for legislators, replacing it with mileage reimbursement for attendance on legislative days. The amendment would be subject to a vote at the 2026 general election. If approved, it would eliminate the $250 per term for presiding officers and $200 per term for other legislators, instead offering mileage for attendance up to 45 legislative days or until July 1, whichever comes first. Special sessions would allow for additional compensation.
