IEA members and the “We Are One” coalition partners have turned up the heat on politicians who want to cut hard-earned and constitutionally protected pensions for public employees.
From east to west, southern Illinois to the suburbs, IEA members last week rallied, telephoned, picketed, wrote letters, sent e-mails and confronted elected officials who had sought to pass fast track legislation and cut pensions before IEA members and other public servants could mobilize.
What we need now are thousands of individual member telephone calls to legislators! Don’t rely just on e-mail. Pick up the telephone and call legislators directly. Tell them that fast track legislation to cut public employee pensions is unfair! You expect their “NO” vote on any fast track legislation that cuts benefits or puts the pension burden on public employees.
