Every two years, the Legislature convenes to deliberate and establish the adjustments to state employee compensation, which includes determining pay raises, setting the parameters for pension plans, and outlining the details of healthcare benefits.
As your friends at the Capitol, TPEA has been advocating on behalf of state employees and retirees, ensuring your voices and concerns are heard during the critical Joint Budget Hearings. Our team has been actively engaged in providing comprehensive testimony, supporting state agencies in their pursuit to secure much-needed pay raises for their hardworking employees.
We understand the vital role state workers play in maintaining the functions of our government and the importance of fair compensation in reflecting their dedication and service. Therefore, TPEA is committed to persistently working towards achieving better financial outcomes, not just for current employees, but also for those who have dedicated years of service and are now in retirement.
