In 1911, the salary for members of the United States Congress was set at $7,500 per year. This amount was established by the Legislative, Executive, and Judicial Appropriation Act of 1911. Additionally, congressional leaders, such as the Speaker of the House and the President pro tempore of the Senate, received higher salaries. However, this amount was relatively modest compared to today's congressional salaries.
the year of the fist contential congress was the year of 1778
Congress' salaries are paid for from the general revenues collected by the federal government. Since the United States only collects revenues (taxes) through various income taxes (including the withholdings for Medicare and Social Security), Congress is in effect paid by taxpayers.

The annual salary of each Representative is currently $165,200, though the Speaker of the House and the Majority and Minority Leaders earn more. The Speaker of the House earned $212,100 during the 109th Congress (January 4, 2005-January 3, 2007) while the Majority and Minority Leaders earned $183,500 (the same as the Leaders in the United States Senate). A cost-of-living-adjustment (COLA) increase takes effect annually unless Congress votes to not accept it. Congress has the power to set members' salaries; however, the Twenty-Seventh Amendment prohibits a change in wages from taking effect in the same two-year term in which it is passed into law.
