State employees seek larger pay raises as budget talks stall
State Employees Association chief Larry Ellis asks the Senate Finance Committee for an extra 10.3 million in pay and retirement benefits, while chairman Rembert Dennis warns the panel faces a tight fiscal situation and may require cuts to fund any increases. The House plan offers 3.62 percent cost of living plus 450 and 2 percent merit raises, with retirees getting 1.3 percent more and 2 million for retiree health insurance. TEC requests keep 271 extra positions approved by the House.
