 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-

 4 Effective January first, two thousand twenty-three, each member of the
 5 legislature shall receive a salary of one hundred forty-two thousand
 6 dollars per annum. Such salary of a member of the legislature shall be
 7 payable in twenty-six bi-weekly installments provided, however, that if
 8 legislative passage of the budget as defined in subdivision three of
 9 this section has not occurred prior to the first day of any fiscal year,
 10 the net amount of any such bi-weekly salary installment payments to be
 11 paid on or after such day shall be withheld and not paid until such
 12 legislative passage of the budget has occurred whereupon bi-weekly sala-
 13 ry installment payments shall resume and an amount equal to the accrued,
 14 withheld and unpaid installments shall be promptly paid to each member.
 15 However, in years where a pay period occurs on January first of a given
 16 year, members' salaries shall be payable in twenty-seven bi-weekly
 17 payments.
 18 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately.
