The state has accrued an unfunded pension liability of over $250 billion. Without meaningful reform, taxpayers and pensioners alike face a deeply uncertain future.

If the latter happens, expect a CTU strike since 2019 is a contract year.

And, before anyone says anything, please note that I do not want this to happen. While I am in the union, I get paid on a day-to-day basis, so if we strike, I'm ****ed.
