Let’s see if Corbett has the chutzpah to stand up to the state worker’s union or if he just kicks the can down the road.
Uh, while the contract has yet to be signed, the salary and health care for the union has been negotiated and approved. It’s a little late to “stand up to the state worker’s union.” As a matter of fact, there is no pay increase for the union members this July and there were other concessions by the union to help the states budget woes. I’m not a union member for the Commonwealth but state worker’s salaries are not the biggest waste of taxpayer money in PA. Trust me on this. (Everyone just loves to bust on the Commonwealth employees but they are far from the problem with the budget.)
