MarylandReporter.com raised the issue at the governor’s news conference on his proposed budget Wednesday. O’Malley had not mentioned cutting the pension payment in his presentation, even though it is listed as the largest spending reduction he is proposing to balance next year’s budget.
After his explanation of the change, O’Malley was specifically asked if the public employee unions had signed off on the reduction. The video of the Jan. 15 news conference shows O’Malley turning to Chief of Staff John Griffin and Budget Secretary Eloise Foster, and both nod their heads indicating the unions had agreed. (The video is in the video library under Jan. 15, 2014 and the exchange takes place around minute 41.)

HAHA!
Anybody remember all the green-shirted union lapdogs out there campaigning for O'Mick?
He's sticking it to you now-- just like old Hope-n-Change has.
They don't care about you. They are out to build an empire, and they'll walk right over you to do it.
According to union workers they make more than anyone else. Why don't they put some of that money away for when they retire. Why do they expect the taxpayers to do it for them. Remember we are the ones that make very little.
I wonder what his buddy Jimbeau Liarton is going to do about it. He used to take off work and join the other union idiots to protest in Annapolis for better pay.
The unions' chickens have come home to roost.
12:49 couldn't have been said any clearer even the dumbass dumbocrats should understand HA HA

Betcha he didn't cut a nickel from his own pay & pension.
I have been calling for a full transaction audit of the fund every since St Martin gave the administrator of the fund a $300K bonus..
Maryland's investment performance has become very secretive under O'Malley --unlike it was in the past
Several Progressive State's funds got hit badly in the Facebook IPO.
I think there was way more going on. It was HIGHLY SUSPECT the way the IPO went off.
Maryland is following the lead of Detroit and Chicago, so you know what's next..
