The State Employees Association of N.C. has selected Rep. Nelson Dollar as its legislator of the year.
Dollar, a Cary Republican, received the award for his work on legislation affecting the State Health Plan and potential furloughs for state employees. The award was presented last week at the employee association's convention and was meant to show appreciation to Dollar for his work on behalf of the state's working families, said a spokeswoman for SEANC, which has 55,000 members.
The award is presented by the association's political action committee and is named for Lisa B. Mitchell, a SEANC member who was active in building the organization's political action committee. Mitchell died last year after a battle with cancer.
