Found job my position open on our company website, with a STARTING salary of $2 more than what I currently make

I have my employee review coming up next week, and with it they have me doing a dumb ass self assessment. One question on the assessment is to list my current responsibilities. I work as receptionist & we are currently down one receptionist, so we are hiring for additional staff. I decided to check the company website to see the job posting, and basically copy – paste it for my self assessment. I go onto our internal website, click the current listing. I scroll to the bottom and what do you know: “salary range $17-$22”….. I make $15.50 an hour…. To say I am pissed is an understatement. Even worse: our yearly raise is 3%, which will put my upcoming salary at $15.96. Absolute bullshit. Any advice how to broach this with upper management? I suck at sticking up for myself.
