The Wisconsin Legislature’s Joint Committee on Employment Relations has approved two-percent pay raises for all state employees – except for one.
Tuesday’s vote was unanimous.
The exception will be the winner of the 2024 election for Milwaukee County district attorney.
All other D-As in the state will get the raise.
Committee co-chair Chris Kapenga, the Republican Senate president, says the pay raise for the Milwaukee County district attorney was withheld due to the low bail recommended by the office for a violent offender who killed six and injured more than 60 at the Waukesha Christmas Parade.
Darrell Brooks Junior was free on a one-thousand-dollar bail at the time.
