§ 4-2-1-1 — Governor's salary; adjustment of amount; appropriation for payment of increases

(a) Beginning January 13, 2025, the annual salary
of the governor is an amount equal to the annual salary of a supreme
court justice under IC 33-38-5-8, as adjusted under IC 33-38-5-8.1.
(b) The governor is not entitled to receive a salary increase under
this section if state employees in the executive branch who are in the
same or a similar salary bracket have not received a statewide average
salary increase during the previous four (4) state fiscal years, regardless
of whether a supreme court justice receives an annual adjustment for
the year under IC 33-38-5-8 and IC 33-38-5-8.1. After 2025, in a
calendar year in which a new governor takes office, if the governor is
entitled to a salary increase in the calendar year under this section, an
annual salary increase occurs beginning on the date the new governor
takes office.
(c) If a salary increase is required under this section, an amount
sufficient to pay for the salary increase is appropriated from the state
general fund.
