    She stated that they have been working on fixing the pension system for several years. If that is so, then why have they not considered making any adjustments to the Legislative Plan? Talk about a cadallaic plan for “part-time” employees!!

    Why was she not asked why O’Malley is diverting hundreds of millions of dollars of the extra money employees will pay for their pensions into the General Fund?
