Salary Increases Favor 5000 State Workers

State employee pay bill sets 20 percent raise with caps
The proposal provides a 20 percent increase for staff earning under 1500 dollars a year, not to exceed 100 dollars in any case, and ensures those at 1400 to 1500 receive enough to reach 1500. Only pre July 1 employees benefit, with stricter limits for those at or above 500 dollars. Maintenance affects eligibility, and increases are based on July 1 pay, with the measure temporary pending a Cascenorea Council report.
