Lynch Says 2 Percent Pay Raise Is a Starting Point

"That’s a very fluid situation, but it’s fluid in the right direction," Lynch just said. "They had the military at 2.9 and they had us at 2.0. What I understand is there’s a scrambling going on. When I raised a concern, they said don’t beat us up yet, that’s not a final number. I think there’s some fluidity there, and I think we might be happy with the end result. We’re pushing on our end for parity, but we want even the military number to move up."
