Plain Dealer examines effect of Senate Bill 5 on school districts

The Cleveland Plain Dealer published an article this week that surveyed the effect Senate Bill 5 would have on school districts.

Among the most drastic changes for school personnel are the elimination of pension "pick ups," the elimination of binding arbitration, and the elimination of longevity pay and step increases.

Of course, opponents of SB 5 are mobilized, attempting to ensure that these changes never take effect, by putting the measure to the voters in the November 2011 general election.
