Getting everyone to the table. « Fred Klonsky

Getting everyone to the table. « Fred Klonsky:

Getting everyone to the table.

I was not reassured by Governor Quinn’s budget speech.

Luckily he only has two sides of his mouth.

That seems to have created a limit on the number of different positions on pension reform that the governor could take.

On one side said he supported pension reform that is constitutional and fair to pension members.

On the other side he said that when it came to public employee pensions, everything is on the table.

IEA President Cinda Klickna was more sanguine.

We are glad the governor reiterated his commitment to a constitutional solution
