Molly Janczyk's letter in response to Dennis Leone's report on last week's Board meeting

Subject: : Leone Letter to Betty Montgomery

Legislators, Superintendent, Auditor,

I am most displeased to learn that the STRS Board approved paying for legal fees for Staff when served subpoenas to court as witnesses. This is improper use of MY money and not in compliance with ORC: 3307.15. WHO asked US if we wished to pay such fees. Some of those served were present and enjoyed dinners, outings, etc. with my money already. Please address this immediately. It seems the same culture of entitlement still exists in some STRS minds and that of appointees and reps. When are you going to show us that you stand for retirees?
