In general, state employees' salaries are covered under various "freedom of information" policies, although it varies somewhat by state. Most have at least some place you can look this up.
As to the OP, the rationale behind not giving out salary information is to prevent problems for/between employees. While an understandable policy, it seems like a bit of an anachronism at this point, and I really don't have any problem with companies giving out or selling this information to a third party company.
