COREofOEA says 47 million dollars!

From John Curry, April 25, 2010
How much will this settlement cost the OEA? The class who sued (OEA retirees) says 47 million:
"The lack of action by OEA governance and by OEA rank and file leadership in this case is disturbing. To allow this case to move forward considering the Appeals court loss is a gross misuse of OEA dues dollars and appears to be a blank check for attorneys to drag out the case as long as possible. Now OEA has filed for a 'partial' Summary Judgment. Rather than try to read anything into that strategy, as a member of OEA you should read the documents if you care at all about how your organization is attacking employee benefits and how it has acted in an effort to win at any cost including losing its integrity. Just how much is the organization willing to lose? Right now the benefit damages are estimated at over $47,000,000."
