Revised budget includes 2% raises

Governor Brown's revised budget includes nearly $184 million to cover a 2% raise for thousands of state employees.

The 2% "trigger-based" salary increases were dependent on the State hitting certain revenue targets. The revised budget summary for "Statewide Issues" clarifies that the revenue targets have been surpassed, triggering the raises.

We're still waiting for additional information from Finance to outline the full scope of eligible employees, so stay tuned for updates.
