Parliamentary Compensation
December 17, 2009 by Bdoga
When the United States was formed, members of the English Parliament served without pay. When did members of Parliament first vote themselves a small salary – 1855, 1893, or 1930?
Answer: 1893 (more than a hundred years after American Senators and Congressmen began receiving compensation for their services).
