    Lawsuit filed claiming Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is constitutionally ineligible to serve</a>

Senator Hillary Clinton voted for this increase. The Constitution forbids members of the Senate from being appointed to civil office, such as the Secretary of State, if the "emoluments," or salary and benefits, of the office were increased during the Senator's term.
