Cathy Burner and Molly Janczyk on HC Legislation: Solving the problem internally

Yes, that is what I hear and spending as usual doesn't look good. Being transparent and completely above board-no secrets-with every attempt to be responsible without unnecessary costs regardless of dollars spent shows we are doing all we can. The attitude of it is only this or only that, does not display the attitude that we will be responsible. Getting HC legislation does not mean we lose sight of retirees' dollars as Tom Johnson quoted his mother as saying, 'Remember they worked hard for those dollars.' Respect of retirees is essential and we still don't see that attitude from some.

Molly,

The legislature is going to ask that STRS internally solve this problem. We should welcome the opportunity to do so.
