One proposal: 3 percent

The committee’s staffer, budget analyst Amy Castro, is now reviewing a proposed motion prepared for Rep. Ken Roberts that calls for 3 percent funding for state employee raises, with 1 percent to go across the board to all eligible employees with satisfactory evaluations, and the other 2 percent to be divided by merit and to target those who are being paid below market. The long, complicated motion also includes various provisions about benefits, including a clause to limit employees’ health insurance premium increases to a maximum of 29 percent. Employees would be offered an alternative plan to keep premium costs the same, but cut coverage.
