<p>I am deeply disappointed&nbsp;the New York State Legislature has voted to authorize the illegal furlough of hardworking state employees.</p>
<p>The governor continues to insist&nbsp;that breaking contracts negotiated in good faith are the only way he can generate savings from the state work force. He knows this&nbsp;is untrue. PEF has provided the governor with alternative budget solutions that would avoid such&nbsp;hardships.</p>
<p>PEF will be immediately filing for a temporary restraining order to stop the illegal furlough plan and protect our members from irreparable damage the loss of income will cause.</p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.pef.org/pef-av-media/rss-comments-entry-8730123.xml</wfw:commentRss></item><item><title>PEF PR Ads</title><category>Ad Campaign</category><category>Advertisements</category><category>PEF Ads</category><category>PR Campaign</category><dc:creator>Angelo Santabarbara</dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 05 May 2010 16:00:00 +0000</pubDate><link>http://www.pef.org/pef-av-media/2010/5/5/pef-pr-ads.html</link><guid isPermaLink="false">419071:7819188:9344066</guid><description><![CDATA[<p>Other materials can also be found in our <a href="http://www.thecommunicator.org/prads.htm" target="_blank">current/previous public relations advertisements</a>.</p>]]></description><wfw:commentRss>http://www.pef.org/pef-av-media/rss-comments-entry-9344066.xml</wfw:commentRss></item></channel></rss>
