Houston, Texas-Based Crown Castle International Corp's Top-Tier Executives Average Pay Raise Was a Clean, Reasonable 6.3% Per Year During the Past Ten Years (2009-2018)

The third Democratic 2020 Presidential candidate televised debate will be held in Houston, Texas on September 12 and 13, 2019.  Texas is also the home state of Julian Castro and Beto O'Rourke, who have both gained significant momentum in the past month.

The key issue to Texas citizens should be the huge and continuing Income Inequality Expansion which is at the core of many critical problems the US faces.

Thus I will be doing research and making posts on the average pay raise per year that the Top-Tier Executives of Texas Companies were rewarded with in the past ten years.  And I'll start with the large Texas Non-Oil & Gas Companies. 

The third Texas Non-Oil & Gas Company I am addressing here is Crown Castle International Corp, which is a Real Estate Investment Trust.  

From annual compensation information contained in Company Proxy Statement filings with the SEC, the chart at the bottom below shows Crown Castle's Top-Tier Executives Annual Total Compensation for each of two consecutive full years of employment for the past ten years (2009-2018). 

Crown Castle's Top-Tier Executives Average Pay Raise was a clean, reasonable 6.3% per year for the past ten years.
