Who Repaired What?

The budget repair bill allows employers to review the contract language and determine those practices, rules or restrictions that the employer no longer wishes to follow and ensure that those items are removed from personnel policies and procedures.
They are also allowed to review salary schedules, pay plans, wage classifications and other wage-related items to determine whether to maintain, change or remove existing pay practices.
Boy are we going to have fun.
The Budget Repair Bill uses the term "public safety" employees throughout the language, but that really means police officers, firefighters and deputy sheriffs who are covered by a collective bargaining agreement and will remain covered by collective bargaining agreements. If collective bargaining is a bad monopoly, why are police and fire exempt?
