Some of the most influential members of the State Legislature earn large paychecks from part-time jobs with law firms, according to financial disclosure filings released on Wednesday under a new state ethics law that requires legislators to reveal their outside income.

In one of the most notable revelations, the disclosure filing of the Assembly speaker, Sheldon Silver, showed that he earned $350,000 to $450,000 last year in his part-time job at a Manhattan personal injury law firm, Weitz & Luxenberg.

The outside income of legislators had previously been redacted from their filings before they were made available for public inspection. But the new ethics law required them to reveal their income within a limited range without redactions, and the filings were posted online by the state’s Joint Commission on Public Ethics, on Wednesday.

Part-time jobs held by sitting legislators have long been a source of concern to government watchdog groups, who have worried about lawmakers profiting from their elected office, through law firms or other jobs whose duties are often nebulous.
