Local 1014 Director and LACERA Safety Representative Will Pryor gave testimony before a joint Senate and House committee on the state of Defined Benefit pension plans. This hearing was called by Senator Bob Casey (D - Pa.) to counter national attacks on pension plans and negative press being generated about pension plans.
The IAFF, CPF and the AFL-CIO along with several non profit advocacy groups will be waging a PR battle to keep states from dropping their pension plans and continue with their most important obligation to their employees. With tough economic times ahead for local government agencies we are expecting another national push to drop or drastically cut pension plans.
