Debra,
Kris never called or emailed me back on this issue of TWO vacant Appointee seats on the STRS Board.
Do legislators not have to follow the laws provided by SB133?
No one has made a move on this for 2 and 1/2 yrs.
We get NO answers yet there is a bill mandating 3 investment appointees and we have one with 2 vacant seats which does not provide necessary representation. We need public pension minded appointees NOT corporate minded as the first 3 which we pressured to step down.

Thank you for your speedy reply.
This is a long time issue no one wants to address with the House Speaker and Sen Pres.
Hopefully with the election, it will be considered by legislators who have constituent interests as their guide vs. union pull. Of course, the unions may wish for empty seats in order to continue their majority.
