AB 1831

Existing law establishes the California State University, under the administration of the Trustees of the California State University, as one of the segments of public postsecondary education in the state. Existing law requires the trustees to establish and adjust the salaries and classifications of all academic, nonacademic, and administrative positions. This bill would require the trustees, on or before July 1, 2027, to repeal a policy on executive compensation adopted at the November 2025 meeting of the trustees and adopt a new policy on executive compensation, as provided. The bill would prohibit the trustees, for any fiscal year in which the trustees authorize an increase in student tuition, from increasing the compensation of a chancellor, vice chancellor, or executive president. The bill would also prohibit the trustees, for any fiscal year in which the trustees do not authorize salary increases for represented staff, from increasing the compensation of a chancellor, vice chancellor, executive president, or member of the management personnel plan staff.
