On June 26th the Assembly Committee on Public Employees, Retirement and Social Security passed ACSS' anti-compaction bill with a bi-partisan 6-0 vote.
ACSS' bill - SB 216 - originally cleared the Senate with unanimous bi-partisan support (38-0).
SB 216 sponsor Senator Jim Beall (D-San Jose) explained how the bill would solve the State's longstanding problem of salary compaction - the phenomena by which supervisors often make less than those they supervise. Assemblymember Reggie Jones-Sawyer (D-Los Angeles), a former City of Los Angeles employee, spoke about the difficulties in recruiting the best and brightest to supervisory positions when the pay isn't suffiicent to take on the responsibility.
ACSS' bill will now move to the Assembly Appropriations Committee. We anticipate some resistance due to the Department of Finance's large price tag on the bill and are meeting with the Governor's office to stress the importance of a longterm solution to protect the State's most experienced and dedicated employees.
