Senate Okays State Employees Pay Raise in Ohio

In Columbus a Senate subcommittee approved a bill for a $500 across the board raise for state workers earning under $8,300 with $330 more in fringe benefits, costing an estimated $41 million statewide. OCSEA backs it, while the State Employees Union plans a protest marching next Tuesday, arguing the raise is insufficient. A separate House bill for a $1,500 raise was introduced. House measures naming Eisenhower and American Legion memorial highways passed, and a regional air pollution district bill for parts of Ohio, Kentucky, and Indiana was revived after a failed vote.
