Massachusetts lawmakers agree to raise pay and hire more public defenders to end a bar advocates' work stoppage.
Massachusetts lawmakers have reached a deal to end a work stoppage by court-appointed attorneys, or bar advocates, who were protesting low pay.
The agreement raises their hourly pay by $20 over two years and provides $40 million to hire more public defenders.
This move aims to prevent future disruptions in the criminal justice system and comes after over 100 cases were dismissed due to the advocates' action.
