State Constitutional Convention!
Ending the benefits of State Legislators does not make sense, it rids the symptom but not the disease-the problem is in how long the term limits are and how many there are in the legislature-correct both of these triggers-and you have good government. Six years is wayyyy too short. Instead of using this as a political football or political capital-the people need to vote for a Constitutional convention and reduce the number of State Legislators by half and then make them serve 40% longer in the House: 10 years and 50% longer in the Senate: 12 years. This would save more and add value to their offices, in terms of how long they serve before they qualify for said benefits!
