National District City Council president Winnie Terrero said yesterday that they are willing to revoke the measure that rounded up their salaries to RD$150,000 per month. This announcement follows the public outcry caused by the news of the pay increase. President Leonel Fernandez has condemned the measure, which was also rejected by the three main political parties. The last to do so was the Dominican Liberation Party (PLD), warning its party leaders on Tuesday that if they did not revoke the wage increase, penalties would be applied. "I, as president of the City Council, and member of the PLD accept the Political Committee's decision, in the sense that anything that appears to be a wage increase shall be rejected," Terrero told Diario Libre.
