The system, which was supposed to be fully operational in June, still isn’t working the way it’s supposed to.

Odd. Employees and VSEA were not asked to participate in the ceremony.

In last night’s VPT gubenatorial debate, Brian Dubie (R) said the following:

“We’re going to have to look at pensions. We’re going to have to have the conversation like we had with the state teachers with our state employees. It’s a difficult conversation, but we’re going to have to do that. We’re going to have to think about going from a defined benefits to defined contributions.”

Please share this quote with your co-workers! VSEA members need to get out in front of proposals like this!

Note: Pilots belonging to Dubie’s own union (the Allied Pilots Assn.) are some of the last in the airline industry to still have a defined benefit plan–and the pilots are fighting hard to protect it!!!

"[TSEU Official] Garcia said Texas is experiencing a projected $18- to $21-billion budget shortfall, and without the support from the fund, the state could end up cutting about 10,000 jobs."
