SEANC pushing for equitable raises as legislature returns The legislature will reconvene on Jan. 14. SEANC will continue to make the case for raises for university and community college employees, noncertified school personnel and retirees -- all of which were left out of the “mini-budget” bills that passed before the holiday break. It is imperative that these employees be treated fairly and receive increases through an override of the veto on the state budget. The retiree bonus that was in the budget was barely a bonus at all. Poor choices by previous state treasurers have made a true COLA unavailable. SEANC is grateful to Treasurer Dale Folwell for the work he is doing to dig us out of the mess created by his predecessors. We are pressing legislative leaders to honor the service and sacrifice of our retired state employees, and we believe they will find enough one-time money to provide a retiree bonus of at least 2%. Members should click below to reach out to their legislators to tell them to stand up for pay equity by passing these increases. Contact your legislator
