Unfortunately, says Gellhorn, the episodic results merely assure individual votes rather than broad reforms. Worse, most state legislators cannot even help their constituents. Thirty state legislatures meet only biennially, and newcomers fill half the seats at each session; only eleven states pay legislators more than $5,000 a year, and funds for adequate staff work are rarely provided.
