Texas state workers sue over Nixon wage freeze
A Texas Public Employees Association suit, filed Thursday in Austin, seeks to void the federal wage price freeze’s effect on state salaries. Plaintiffs, led by Benjamin Knight and Vincent Ortiz, claim the Economic Stabilization Act does not apply to states. The action aims to keep 6.8 percent pay raises authorized in the general appropriations bill from being blocked by the freeze. The outcome could affect living standards for Texas state employees as of Sept. 1.
