LSP, if anything, went out of their way to work with the state. They didn't have any raises or new hires since 2008 which cut their numbers significantly and the state still had budget issues.

The problems with the budget lies elsewhere.

Do you work for DPS? Because if you do, you know good and well that the statement about no raises since 2010 is false. They have received merit increases when other departments could not afford to give merits. They also were able to promote, even when a hiring freeze only allowed promotion within certain circumstances.

They should be paid, don't get me wrong, but not when the state is having budget shortfalls.
