* The mayor’s office and at least one credit ratings agency believed just a few weeks ago that this bill would pass with Republican votes as it had in the past. But the governor put a brick on it and it only received 63 votes - far short of the 71 needed to override a veto…
The Illinois House on Thursday once again passed a bill designed to shore up the pension funds for Chicago laborers and other city workers — a measure with identical language to a bill Gov. Bruce Rauner vetoed in March. […]
The latest bill had no support from House Republicans. House Republican Leader Jim Durkin, R-Western Springs, said he wouldn’t support the measure without statewide pension reform.
“House Republicans are sensitive to the fiscal issues confronting Chicago and its pension system. However, we are confronted with the same problems with our 5 state pension systems which for all practical purposes are in worse shape,” Durkin said in a statement. “Unless paired with statewide pension reform, SB 14 today is a non-starter. The deadline to pass the Chicago Pension Bill should be extended so as to include with negotiations on broader pension reform.” […]
Rep. Christian Mitchell, D-Chicago, said the measure had bipartisan support last year, and blamed Rauner for the lack of Republican support.
“The only reason why anyone would be voting against this bill is the governor is throwing a temper tantrum as per usual about his useless Turnaround Agenda and wants to leverage the city of Chicago, the taxpayers of the city of Chicago in order to gain political advantage,” Mitchell said.
After two and a half years, the House Democrats have still not yet come to terms with the fact that this governor isn’t one of them.

There is bi partisan support for statewide pension reform Mr. Mitchell
If only Democrats weren’t throwing a temper tantrum this badly needed legislation would pass

LP, and so you think we should let one of the patients bleed out while we argue, instead of slowing down the bleeding first and THEN continue to bash one another over the head trying to get a permanent fix. Either you get everything you want or someone else dies. Yeah, good on you bud.
Comment by Perrid Friday, Apr 28, 17 @ 10:07 am
What specifically does anyone mean by pension reform? I want specifics. Tier 2 IS/WAS pension reform. Annuitants will receive drastically lower benefits. By pension reform, do people mean elimination of retirement income or what?
Comment by AnonymousOne Friday, Apr 28, 17 @ 10:10 am
We need to end pensions for every new hire immediately. We then need to lay off the state work force and rehire with the new benefit system.

So, again, you agree and promote squeezing the beast, when Rauner can’t get 60 and 30.

What “pension reform,” LP? The version that says you can choose A or B, but you can’t keep what you have now? Because that just means waiting for the Supreme Court to strike it down. And any plan that says you can keep what you have or you can trade it for something worth less will, as you might guess, generate far less in savings.

That’s so cute, you think people will take these jobs without any incentive. When the position I got was open, 20 letters were sent out, only 3 people showed up to be interviewed. I was pretty much the only one that was literate. If people were jumping to get these jobs, there would not be open positions for years. My Agency had to list one 3 times,and we ended up with a transfer from another county, leaving yet another open position nobody wants.

History has shown time and time again that the Democrats are only willing to hurt their unions when it helps Chicago. Rauner has observed this history, which is why he wants to tire pension reform for Chicago to the rest of the State.
As soon as Chicago gets what it wants, then the Democrats will be all like, “BUT WE CAN’T HURT OUR CAMPAIGN DONORS, I MEAN, THE MIDDLE CLASS!!”

Let’s see…I’m a fresh graduate right out of college. Let’s debate the pro’s and cons of working for a state (without a pension) va working in the private sector. State: ok pay, no raises for years, constant threat of layoffs, benefit reductions. Private: higher pay, 401K, bonuses, raises. Yeah, without the pension, a State job isn’t too great for a new graduate or anyone with a degree.

I was a temp at the state for 8 years. You can’t imagine how many temps I saw parade through, because once people got there they noped right back out. Before me they had a person not show up the 2nd day and 1 person not come back from lunch. I had my life threatened twice during that time. I decided a long time ago sane people don’t want these jobs. Good thing I’m not.

Sounds great except it violates labor law when you selectively choose which group of workers get raises and which don’t based on nothing except their pension status. You freeze then all…or you freeze nobody. And no raises—ever—is not exactly something that promotes hiring.
Comment by Ratso Rizzo Friday, Apr 28, 17 @ 10:55 am
==Why not even cut salaries? The state is broke.==
Because we have contracts to honor. The time for a cut or freeze is in the next contracts.
And if we do freeze or cut salaries, that money saved should be put into the pension funds. That way, the state continues to fund employee compensation, just more money going into deferred vs current salaries.

Even if you cut all state employee salaries down to zero the State would still need to raise taxes to pay its bills. A tax increase is coming. But instead of 5%, Rauner’s reign is going to make it 6% or higher.

I have to assume that privatizing and eliminating pensions talk is about mainly state employees. I’d love to see this attempt at teachers. I’m trying not to laugh here. Aren’t people always whining about increasing standards/qualifications to get only the world’s best and brightest teaching the little ones, the AP classes, college prep? Geniuses/experts at minimum wage with no retirement plan! Sounds like there’d be a stampede to the hiring offices.
What we’d get is no one. Just what we deserve. I still say everyone needs to take care of their own. Home school, since only you can do it best and for less than your massive tax bill.
Comment by AnonymousOne Friday, Apr 28, 17 @ 11:05 am
The fact is no pension and a 401k with a decent match is better than tier 2 for new hires.
Fortune 500 companies figured out over 25 years ago defined benefit pensions are not sustainable. New hires cannot expect pensions anywhere but in Government jobs.
Democrats are all about the kids except one it come to paying them.

Are these based on performance?

Isn’t a freeze based on standing or class (Tier 1) discriminatory? I understand that they are not a recognized or protected class, but the reality is that they are being singled out.
Incentive to work harder? I know the real goal is to get them to quit, and this is a pretty gutless way of going about it, not to mention it violates conservative values.

3. I say we all should have a good pension instead of taking what we all agree are good pensions from those that currently have them.

A tourniquet is a type of bandage.
It is not a long term solution either.
Republicans want to argue about whether the patient needs a valve replacement surgery or a heart transplant while the patient bleeds out on the table, and they can’t decide which unless they are sure the patient can afford the surgery.

A lot of employees covered by state retirement systems are not in social security. (SURS, TRS, State Police, etc.). If these jobs are privatized, the employer has to pay social security tax. The “major plus” becomes a “tiny fraction”. Then you add in the privatized employees NOT contributing into the pension systems, which the state then has to make up the difference. At that point, “major plus” becomes a “minus”. Then add in extra for contractor profit, and you have a “major minus”, costing the state far more then having state employees do the work. This doesn’t even take into account the learning curves and turnover rates of these privatized workers.

The Democrats don’t have a plan that doesn’t involve raising taxes if they did it would already be out there.
Rauner’s plan needs to spend more money than he has but he’s attached conditions to it that he’s obviously not letting go.
If the Dems want the Gov to raise taxes then there has to be a give. He’s proven he’s not going to be moved by sympathy. So either the Dems start getting a better message and promote it (ala storm the building) or give something to the Gov. to get what they want (the release of hostages).
The hostages are being taken down and the Dems are standing by hoping to wait it out. It gets worse everyday.

I worry more about folks outliving their 401ks.
The vast majority of honest hardworking people do not understand the rule of 72 nor how to manage their investments successfully.

Based on the value of their pensions compared to Tier 2. Their merit pay is embedded in that difference.
==Isn’t a freeze based on standing or class (Tier 1) discriminatory? I understand that they are not a recognized or protected class, but the reality is that they are being singled out.==
Thanks to Tier 2, their overall compensation package is greater. I suppose you’re singling out the higher paid employees. A progressive approach, unless lower paid employees should take the hit (which they do already).

You do realize that most jobs with the state require a background check. You are handling information that is protected by various privacy laws. It takes about 3 weeks to get the background check. These jobs are not the type a person can just walk into. Most require a degree in the job field. This isn’t likes sticking a new waitress in a restaurant. People are being foolish. So is the governor who keeps saying he can save billions on pension reform. This has been debated nonstop. That money has to be paid. You cannot diminish a state employee’s pension.
Also, you should not be hostile toward state employees because they have worked their whole lives and get a pension. My pension will be approximately $712 a month. I can’t imagine how taking that away will solve the state budget problems. If they really want pension reform, start with the politicans and big-wigs who receive multiple pensions. Reform that. Stopping that is something I could get behind. But only going forward. It’s not the average state worker folks. Blaming the workforce is not the answer.

Let’s revisit history again.
1) DB pensions are sustainable when properly funded.
2) Fortune 500 corps had over funded their pension systems and wanted to pull their money out and pay off stockholders instead of honoring their promises. And corporations even staged sales, spin-offs and bankruptcy so they could raid the company pension funds. That’s why very few corporations have DB plans today.

“You cannot diminish a state employee’s pension.”
Definition of insanity. A rational state would allow a future “benefit” that in no way was earned to be changed. I used to get a larger 401k match than I do today. I still get the 401k and a match it’s just a smaller match now.
My company is solvent. How about Illinois?

And hat tip to BBG Watch! Thanks for bringing up the six-figure pensions for the legislators and the judges. That’s where pension reform needs to start, at the top, not the bottom!
Comment by Ma'at's Feather Friday, Apr 28, 17 @ 2:23 pm
@RNUG - That Tier 1 freeze needs to be applied across all pension systems. Probably hardest at the TRS level, but doable with the right incentives from the state.
Perhaps tie increased higher ed funding to a multi-year Tier 1 wage freeze. Maybe exempt a small percentage that generates revenue from research or whatever at the administration’s discretion. That won’t impact attracting new talent as they’ll all be Tier 2 anyway and not subject to the freeze.

I do not believe freezing the wages of tier 1 employees (while not freezing tier 2 who do the same job) would survive a court battle. Freeze everyone or freeze no one (well, at least with regards to union employees). I know SPSAs in my unit whose salaries have been frozen for years, but they do not have the same union protections. I still say that the best way to take care of the pension problem is to get as many of the Tier 1 employees (like myself) to retire sooner at a lower level of compensation, with an age buyout.

Some people won’t be happy until all people have the same worries in retirement: no pension, no health insurance, working until you’re 80, living in poverty and constant worry for your family. It’s truly a race to the bottom with some of the commentators here. Instead of decrying the pensions of state workers, maybe we should be wondering why we all don’t have one. And it has nothing to do with wealth—US corporations and the top 1% are as rich as they’ve ever been…thanks to the brainwashed citizenry who are trying to destroy unions and anyone else who are trying to bring us all up.

Because your pension relies on the profits of those companies they invest in, who then figured out one of the best ways to meet those profit expectations required by your pension was to not offer pensions to their own employees.
