Extra Raises in House and Senate Budgets

[Matt Puckett]

After a very careful review of both budgets, a version of the PBA seniority/compression raise is included in both the House and Senate budgets.

In the Senate Budget:
For all three PBA bargaining units: FDLE Special Agents, State Law Enforcement Officers, and FHP Chapter the following pay raises will apply.
1) Officers with 5 years or less will get a three percent pay increase to the base salary.

2) Officers with 5 years or more will get a five percent pay increase to the base salary. This raise is on top of the 3% across the board pay increase for all state employees.

In the House Budget:
For the same three PBA bargaining units:
Officers will get an additional 3% increase in addition to the $1,400 across the board raise.

Sorry for the delay in getting all of the budget numbers together.

Remember - Negotiations will begin between the House and Senate soon.


Thank you and stay safe

Oh yea, it is on the truck. FHP has heard this many times before!

No doubt, but both chambers have recognized the issue in the respective budgets. We still have a ways to go, but at least we are in the mix.

Thanks Matt.

If its in both it will happen. This is not a stand alone bill these are are the actual initial budgets.

Fantabulous!

Pretty soon we will be back up to 1994 wages!

I'm not holding my breath on that one. Our "pay raise" will more than likely get downgraded to a written reprimand, increase in health insurance premiums, and pay more for mileage with 208. Get out of this place while you can, the ship is sinking and life boats are filling up.
