Thanks to your efforts, the vote on HB 4917 that was scheduled for Wednesday, May 19th has been postponed!! Thank-you to everyone that called or sent emails. Please continue to contact Representative Lindberg and Speaker Dillon to voice your opposition to HB 4917 and urge them not to bring the bill out of committee. Although this bill is the Detroit Pension Board issue, the ramifications of the legislation go much further than just Detroit.
We are opposed to this bill because it opens PERA and creates another restriction on collective bargaining rights.
Here is a link to the analysis of the bill. The MPFFU is opposed to opening PERA to make this change. It is something that should remain subject to collective bargaining.
Speaker of the House Andy Dillion: andydillon@house.mi.gov 517-373-0857
Representative Steven Lindberg: stevenlindberg@house.mi.gov 517-373-0498 |
