Guest column: Public employees' pay, benefits must be reformed
"One key element of that plan is reforming public employee pay, benefits and pension programs.
We don’t advocate these changes because we feel public employees don’t work hard — we know they do.
But, when wage and benefit expenses are the single biggest factor driving unsustainable finances and are above the national average for state workers and more generous than the private sector, change is needed."
