State Senate Republicans gathered this morning to unveil their plan to provide what they’re calling the largest teacher pay raise in state history, with the prospect of providing average raises in excess of 11 percent.

Senate leader Phil Berger, R-Rockingham, says the plan is fully funded. Details are expected later today when the Senate unveils its budget plan. Click play below to watch Berger’s 20-minute news briefing on the plan.
