JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. - An early supplemental bill has been signed into law, meaning pay raises for certain state employees.

Gov. Mike Parson signed House Bill 14 on Monday, which secures an 8.7% cost-of-living pay increase for all state team members and a $2 per hour shift differential for state congregate care staff.

This past January, Gov. Parson called on the Legislature to pass the house bill, which includes much-needed pay increases for state team members.

Seeing a turnover rate of nearly 30% and more than 7,000 positions open across state government, Gov. Parson asked the General Assembly to approve the measure by March 1.
