Both legislators pledged to do what they can change state bargaining rules that often put local governments on the losing end of costly wage and benefit negotiations with their employees.
But Underheim and Roessler also said Gov. Jim Doyle isn’t likely to endorse such a change.

And bless Gov. Doyle for protecting working families.

Afterall, I would hate to see the city workers pay more than 5% of their health insurance premiums. Give me a break. Even the county will be paying 20% of their insurance by next Oct. The law needs to be changed to protect the tax payer. Why should govt. workers wages and benefits go up endlessly while the rest of us have wage freezes and increased insurance costs?
