On Friday, Republicans of the Senate in the state of New York raised the Council of Referees because of its approval to increase the salary of $ 155,000 to the head of high schools, Betty Rosa, describing it as another example of “spending outside of control.”
In a huge speech, the legislators urged a committee of 15 members to reconsider the “unjustified and offensive wages”, which brought Rosa, Commissioner of the Ministry of Government and the Chairman of the Referees Council, to an annual salary of $ 489,000.
Rosa, as the publication this week revealed, also means a pension of $ 120,000 of her time as Bronx and Director, which the Republic of Republics referred to means that she is heading to $ 600,000 in total taxpayer cash.
“The residents of New York are struggling to pay their bills,” wrote the 16th lawmakers, led by the leader of the Senate minority, Robert Ort, in the letter. “When the average family income in New York State is $ 81,000, it is not understood that twice this amount will rise to a public official who was already achieving four times the income of the intermediate family that was approved as members of the Board of Directors.”
The message added: “Redted spending, such as the commissioner Rosa, is just another example of spending outside the control that we are witnessing a year after this state, and reached its climax in proposing the state budget for this year with an amount of $ 252 billion.”
Moreover, Pols indicated that the Schoolkids test in New York is still leaving the national average.
The “Nation's Report Card”, which was released on Wednesday, showed that two-thirds of the fourth grade students in New York City do not justify mathematics and even less than to prove the efficiency of reading-although Empire State aims money in its other schools.
“To add more insult to the injury, the Commissioner Rosa leads a section where there are policies
The message said: “The failure to improve the levels of testing for New York children.”
“New York continues the delay in the national average in mathematics degrees for fourth and eighth graders, and it is only medium in reading grades despite the spending of money for every student more than any other country in the country.”
The Referees Council was contacted to comment.
