Ryan, Governor Honorable James "Pate" Philip, President of the Senate Honorable Emil Jones, Minority Leader of the Senate Honorable Michael J. Madigan, Speaker of the House Honorable Lee A. Daniels, Minority Leader of the House Honorable Jesse White, Secretary of State Honorable Daniel W. Hynes, Comptroller 2002 REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION REVIEW BOARD Under the Compensation Review Act, 25 ILCS 120/1 et seq. (the "Act), the Compensation Review Board is to meet every even-numbered year and make recommendations to the General Assembly as to the appropriate levels of compensation for approximately 1,200 designated offices and positions. On behalf of the citizen members of the Compensation Review Board of the State of Illinois (the "Board"), we respectfully submit our 2002 Report. As a Board, we have conducted hearings as required by the Act and have considered the factors set forth in the Act (25 ILCS 120/4), including the financial ability of the State to meet the costs that will result from the adoption of the recommendations in this Report. It is the view of this Board that the salary adjustments recommended herein are necessary to accomplish the goals and purposes of the Act. PRIOR REPORTS OF THE BOARD The Compensation Review Act was adopted in July, 1984. It was modeled after a federal statue and the statues of certain other states that have established commissions to propose salary levels for elected officials. This is the tenth Report that this Board has submitted since the adoption of the Act. The Act required our first Report to be filed in January, 1985, with subsequent Reports to be filed prior to May 1 in each even-numbered year. The General Assembly allowed our 1985 Report and the 1986, 1994 and 1998 Reports to become law. The Reports in 1988, 1990, 1992, 1996 and 2000 were rejected by both Houses of the General Assembly, although a recommendation for future cost-of-living adjustments ("COLA") was approved as a result of the 1990 Report. Because more than half of the Reports of this Board have been rejected by the General Assembly, the officers and executives dependent upon this Board for equitable salary levels have seen their pay reduced
9 [April 1, 2002] in terms of real dollars. At our recent hearings, we heard testimony and were provided with a report from Professor Emeritus Charles Linke, the former Chairperson of The Department of Finance of the University of Illinois, Champaign, Illinois, showing that substantial salary increases are necessary to attain the purchasing power of salaries earned in prior years. CURRENT REPORT In submitting our March 31, 2000 Report we recommended increases of 2% effective July 1, 2000 and 2% effective July 1, 2001 for most elected officials including judges, state's attorneys and legislators. We also urged increased salary levels of higher amounts for most of the 105 Executive Branch positions covered by our Report. In making those recommendations we explained that they were necessary to restore income lost to inflation and to otherwise accomplish the objectives of the Act. The March 31, 2000 Report was rejected by the General Assembly. The Governor was able to implement most of the Executive Branch positions of our Report through Executive Order as authorized by Pub. Act 91-25. His exercise of that power addressed the problem for Executive Branch, but there is no similar authority to adjust the compensation for judges, state's attorneys and other elected officials. These officials depend on this Board and the General Assembly to set equitable salary levels. Obviously, since this Board proposed and increase in 2000, the membersof this Board believe that present salary levels are too low. And, under ordinary circumstances, applying statutory criteria (see 25 ILCS 120/4), we would urge substantial increases. However, one of the factors we are to consider - the financial ability of the State to meet the cost of any proposed increase (see Id., subparagraph H) - overwhelms that all other factors. Accordingly, this Board regretfully determined the, except for the modest proposals for the Judicial Branch explained below, no increases in salaries are appropriate at this time. RECOMMENDATIONS 1. Authorize the filing of a report in 2003. Forecasts predict a more favorable economic climate in the near future. We, therefore, recommend that this Board be directed to meet again in early 2003 to make further recommendations. Unless authorized to meet at that time, our Board will not report again until March, 2004. Because our March 31, 2000 Report was rejected, there has been no increase for most offices covered by the Act since our 1998 Report became law in July, 1998. When long periods pass with no adjustments, the General Assembly is required to play "catch up" and substantial increases -- which are misunderstood by the public -- become necessary. We seek to avoid that predicament. We also note that commencing in January 2003, a new Governor will have responsibility to run the Executive Branch of our State government. A new administration should have the opportunity to make recommendations for salary levels it decides are necessary to attract capable candidates to serve in the Governor's Cabinet and to administer the various State agencies under the Governor's jurisdiction. In past Reports, see e.g. May 1, 1992 Report, we proposed that the General Assembly amend the Compensation Review Act to require our reports to be filed in odd-numbered years instead of even-numbered years. We made this request because in even-numbered years our Reports are filed just months before statewide elections. This unfortunate timing injects politics into the process and prevents the dispassionate, objective and nonpartisan review of salary recommendations that was intended by the Act. We renew that request, as part of this Report. Alternately, because of the unique circumstances presented this year, we ask that we be allowed to submit a report in 2003, as an exception to the otherwise applicable report date.
[April 1, 2002] 10 2. Pension payments on behalf of the Judiciary. This year, as in prior hearings, there was a compelling case made for salary adjustments for members of the judiciary. The need for reasonable judicial compensation has been discussed in each of our prior biennial Reports. Again this session, we heard testimony from representatives of a Joint Illinois State Bar Association-Chicago Bar Association Committee on Judicial Compensation ("Joint Committee"). The Joint Committee has consistently urged that a reasonable compensation, with periodic adjustments for inflation, is essential if we are to have a competent and independent judiciary. With its Report, the Joint Committee also submitted a Report entitled Federal Judicial Pay Erosion that was prepared for submission to Congress in February 2001 by the American Bar Association of the Federal Bar Association. That report related that the average prices for consumer goods have risen faster than judicial salaries, a well documented fact. It also stated that there is "a marked disparity between public and private salaries" that "negatively affects the ability to attract highly qualified judicial candidates and to retain highly experienced judges." (Id. At p.12). The salary problem for Illinois judges is compounded by the fact that judicial pensions are funded through payroll deductions equal to 11% of the salary of most Illinois judges.1 We were advised that most states pay some, or even all, of the employee contribution for judges' pensions. Only one state (Louisiana) requires a contribution higher than that imposed on our State judges. We also heard testimony that the State of Illinois pays a substantial portion of the employee share of the required pension contribution of most career State employees. It is inequitable to require a full 11% payment by judges. We, therefore, recommend that the State of Illinois pay 3% of each judge's total Salary as a portion of the judge-employee contribution to the pension fund. 3. Adjustments for Associate Judges. We have also proposed a modest increase for Associate Judges. In prior Reports we have pointed out than Associate Judges do virtually the same work and have the same responsibilities as Circuit Judges. But Associate Judges are paid substantially less that Circuit Judges. The Joint Committee submitted that the salary differential should be no greater than $7,000. We have attempted to address that problem by providing that the salary of an Associate Judge be set at 95% of the salary of a Circuit Judge. If approved, Associate Judges will earn $6,827 less that Circuit Judges in FY 2002.2 When Circuit Judges' salaries are increased, Associate Judges' salaries will be increased without the need for separate action. We think these recommendations for the Judicial Branch are sound and essential. CONCLUSION The compensation Review Board was created by the Compensation Review Act to provide an objective, dispassionate, periodic review of the salary levels of our judges, elected officials and top executives within the Executive Branch. We ask the leaders and members of the General Assembly to consider our recommendations consistent with the purposes for which the Act was adopted. We appreciate the opportunity to have served the General Assembly and the people of Illinois. Respectfully submitted, COMPENSATION REVIEW BOARD s/Kevin M. Forde, Chairman On Behalf of the Board REPORT OF THE COMPENSATION REVIEW BOARD STATE OF ILLINOIS MARCH 29, 2002
11 [April 1, 2002] TO: Members of the Illinois House of Representatives Members of the Illinois Senate Honorable Daniel W. Hynes, Comptroller Honorable Jesse White, Secretary of State RECITALS WHEREAS, pursuant to the laws of the State of Illinois, there was created the Compensation Review Board, consisting of twelve citizens of the State of Illinois (the "Board"), which Board has been entrusted with the responsibility and duty to determine the compensation for members of the General Assembly, judges, other than the county supplement, the elected constitutional officers of State government, state's attorneys and certain appointed officers of State government (collectively referred to as "Public Officials"); and WHEREAS, the Board has conducted a series of public hearings, heard the testimony of witnesses, and received and reviewed hundreds of pages of documents, all relating to the compensation of the Public Officials; and WHEREAS, the Board, in determining the compensation for each and every office contained in this Report, has considered the skill required, the time required, the opportunity for other earned income, the value of public services as performed in comparable states, the value of such services as performed in the private sector in Illinois and comparable states based on the responsibility and discretion required in the office, the average of consumer prices commonly known as the cost of living, the overall compensation presently received by the Public Officials and all other benefits received, the interests and welfare of the public and the financial ability of the State to meet those costs, and such other factors, not confined to the foregoing, which are normally and traditionally taken into consideration in the determination of such compensation; and WHEREAS, after posting due notice, the Board held a public hearing on March 27, 2002, in Chicago, Illinois, at which the Board voted and approved the following Motions: 1. To increase the annual compensation of associate judges so as to always equal 95% of the annual compensation of circuit court judges. 2. To require that the State of Illinois contribute three percent (3%) of each judge's salary toward the statutorily required employee contribution to the Judge's Retirement System. 3. To adopt a Resolution urging the General Assembly to amend the Compensation Review Act to change the year that reports are to be filed from the even-numbered years to the odd-numbered years, beginning 2003 or, alternatively, to permit the filing of an additional report in 2003 on a one time only basis. WHEREAS, the Compensation Review Act requires that seven affirmative votes be cast in order for the Board to determine the compensation of the Public Officials, and each of the aforesaid Motions carried by at least seven affirmative votes, thereby making the results of said Motions the compensation determinations of the Compensation Review Board; and WHEREAS, in accordance with the foregoing Motions, the annual compensation for the position of each Public Official and per diem amounts are determined as follows: Schedule of Recommended Salaries and Per Diem Effective July 1, 2002 and BEFORE Application of the Cost of Living Adjustment for Each Respective Year 1 1.
