Members of the New York State Legislature are going to be back at the Capitol building Thursday for a special session.

Both the Assembly and Senate are expected to vote on a measure that would increase their salaries from the current $110-thousand a year to $142-thousand a year. There'd also be limits placed on the amount of money that lawmakers can earn outside of their position as an elected official. If approved, the salary increase would go into effect on January 1st.
