Pension Reform?

From the Desk of State Sen. Dan Duffy:

Interesting fact about the “special session” last Friday - as you know the legislature was called to Springfield for a special session to vote on a “Pension Reform” bill. The Union bosses have been adamantly opposed to ALL pension reforms. To guarantee Madigan and Cullerton would not call a bill for us to vote on, the SEIU Union donated $97,000.00 to Madigan’s campaign…and $95,000.00 to Cullerton’s campaign on the very day, Friday, we were all in Springfield for a “special session”. No bills were called for a vote. Taxpayers paid 40k for the trip…while President Cullerton and Speaker Madigan raked in the campaign donations. Do you think this is “pay to play” politics, Chicago style, or just a miraculous coincidence?
