ATTORNEY GENERAL REVIEW REQUEST IP: 173.65.70.203 Posted on January 2, 2009 at 04:30:49 AM by Larry Vincent
TO ALL RETIREES,
WE HAD A STATE SENATOR SEND THE ATTORNEY GENERAL A REQUEST FOR A REVIEW. THE AG SENT THE SENATOR A LETTER SAYING THEY WOULD LOOK INTO THE MATTER "IF" THE PENSION BOARD WOULD MAKE THE REQUEST. WHEN THE AG REFUSES TO TAKE A REVIEW UNDER INVESTIGATION, WHICH COMES FROM A SITTING STATE SENATOR, IT IS DOUBTFUL THEY WILL ACT SHORT OF THE PENSION BOARD ACTING. ONCE AGAIN, WE CAN SEE HOW DEEPLY ENTRENCHED THIS PENSION MATTER IS AND WHAT A HOT POTATO IT IS. SO, I AM NOT SURE HOW WE CAN FORCE THE AG TO ACT. ACCORDING TO THE LAW, AS I READ IT, THE AG MUST RESPOND TO A SITTING SENATOR WHO MAKES A REQUEST FOR A REVIEW. GUESS I READ THE LAW WRONG BECAUSE OF THE RESPONSE FROM THE AG. WILL TALK TO OUR SENATOR AGAIN AND REMIND HER THAT THE LAW SAYS THEY CAN'T REFUSE TO DO THE REVIEW DUE TO THE SENATOR'S REQUEST. THE LAW IS CLEAR, NOT SURE HOW THE AG GETS AROUND IT. THE SENATOR MAY NEED TO WRITE A LETTER OF COMPLAINT TO THE AG TELLING HIM THAT THE LAW IS CLEAR AND THAT THEY NEED TO REVIEW IT ACTIONS OF THE TRUSTEES SINCE THE SENATOR HAS REQUESTED IT. THAT IS ALL I KNOW TO DO. I'LL TRY TO GET THE SENATOR TO TAKE THIS UP AGAIN.
