Pension Fix Must Not Harm Retirees
DO NOT PUNISH State Employees and Retirees for the mistakes of the elected officials... Do Not Cut Benefits ...
Why is this important?
As a retired State Employee, I'm very concerned with the proposals being kicked around by the State Legislature concerning the "pension problem" in Illinois... The State is not even considering adding additional revenue to help solve this mess that was created by years of revenue shortfalls ... State workers and retirees should not be made to suffer for the mistakes of the past made by our elected officials...
