To three Board members: Thank you from a retiree

From Kathie Bracy, June 16, 2006

To Conni Ramser, Jeff Chapman and Mike Billirakis

Conni, I want to thank you for proposing your substitute motion yesterday to put a $100,000 spending limit on the Executive Director instead of allowing it to go to a whopping half million. While $100,000 is still too much, it is far better than the alternative, and I very much appreciate your recognizing this.

Jeff and Mike, I want to thank you for supporting Conni's motion, and thereby getting it passed. All of you did the RIGHT THING; and this is the kind of action that goes a LONG WAY with retirees.

Thank you ALL for observing ORC 3307.15. You were thinking of us, and we appreciate it. Please keep up the good work.

Kathie Bracy

One of thousands of STRS retirees who are counting on you
