December 20, 2001

Dear Colleagues:

The House of Representatives passed another amended version of the early retirement bill late this afternoon (Thursday). The Senate may vote on the bill as early as tomorrow (Friday). Copies of the latest version of the bill are on their way to local chapter offices.

The governor held a meeting with staff representatives of several public employee unions this afternoon. Among other topics, she urged the passage of the early retirement bill, to prevent layoffs and to ease personnel costs for FY 2002 and 2003.

Pat Markunas
MSCA President
