John Curry: A major housecleaning long overdue at ORTA

From John Curry, March 17, 2007
Subject: Dr. Leone - Once again snubbed by ORTA
It sure looks like reform at ORTA once again takes a back seat to the "old guard" still in control, but....what else is new? Gee, just when I was about to join an organization that gave appearances that it was about to become a unified voice for all STRS retirees this comes along! I Guess all those retirees who don't have computers, can't physically operate computers, or can't afford them will be left out in the dark again. Guess they'll have to go to those ORTA once-a-month mashed potatoes and meatloaf meetings and still miss out on the latest news from the candidate they elected to represent them on the STRS Board, Dennis Leone. Thanks to the hierarchy at ORTA, ignorance will still be bliss in the minds of those thousands of the faithful. Please read below what has transpired in the last 24 hours as presented in Kathie Bracy's Blog. A major housecleaning at ORTA is long overdue. This is a travesty!
