Re: Florida PBA Capitol Report for April 5, 2013
Can we pin a PBA topic section to the board so this will stay at the top like the FHP one.
Matt,
Any updates on the pay raise bills. I hear the senate approved their budget and it is close to the house budget, with the house providing more funding for pay increases. Any news?
Thanks

House budget is being voted on tomorrow so let's wait and see where it lands.

If you are hearing that the raise died or anything like that. It is not true.
The House changed the across the board raise from $1400 to $1000 with a $400 merit bonus. However, the House left in the additional 3% for all of you. Here's the language:
2) SPECIAL PAY ISSUES
(a) Effective July 1, 2013, from the funds in Specific Appropriation 1950A, $1,302,827 from the General Revenue Fund and $8,351,498 from trust funds are provided to fund competitive pay adjustments of 3 percent on the employee's June 30, 2013 base rate of pay, to unit and non-unit employees of the Law Enforcement, Florida Highway Patrol, and Special Agent bargaining units.
FWC officers are included in the law enforcement officers bargaining unit.
The Senate did not change anything in its proposal.
Negotiations will begin shortly between the chambers.

Moderator,
Could you please pin an ask the PBA thread like is on the FHP link. This is a good communication channel and should be at the top always as a direct link between us and our bargaining unit. Matt has been doing a great job keeping up with the Q and A.

word in Tallahassee is that we will not get either the overall raise or the compression raise this year. maybe next year if Obama keeps moving the economy in the right direction.
