Here's the summary statement given in the above article>>
"...The move has angered some of Texas' employee unions.
"Rank-and-file Texas employees can sometimes return to state employment after retirement, but only after a 90-day waiting period and with frozen pensions, Mike Gross, vice president of the 12,000-member Texas State Employees Union, told the Chronicle.
"'Whether the thing’s legal or not, the governor is locked arm in arm with a whole group of conservatives who are attacking our pension fund and then he is taking advantage of a loophole that only he and a few others have access to. It’s outrageous,' he said."
What do you think? Is he being hypcritcal? What's your opinion on the controversial topic of unions?
