DeB 19

The PENGUIN GUIDE to the UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION

by Richard Beeman

Article I Section 6

The provision for paying salaries to members of Congress provoked some disagreement among the delegates, as at least some members of the Continental Convention thought that public servants should be virtuous and wealthy ''gentlemen'' capable of serving in office without the need to seek compensation.

The provision providing immunity from arrest except in cases of treason, felony, or breach of the peace was another attempt to ensure the independence of members of the legislature, and the provision prohibiting service in other public offices while serving in Congress marked a rejection of practices in the English parliament, where members of Parliament also served as ministers in a king's cabinet; more generally it reflected a desire to reinforce the principle of separation of powers.
