Modify Mileage and Per Diem

Introduced·4/29/26

Adjusts 2027 North Carolina legislator travel and per diem rates to 2025 federal rates.

The bill modifies the travel and per diem rates for North Carolina legislators starting in 2027. It sets the weekly travel allowance based on the actual round-trip mileage from a legislator's home to Raleigh, using the Internal Revenue Service's business standard mileage rate. It also sets a daily subsistence allowance for meals and lodging, equal to the maximum per diem rate for federal employees in Raleigh. The bill appropriates $100,000 from the General Fund for the 2025-2026 fiscal year to cover implementation costs.
