To combat a brutal, deficit-plagued balance sheet, Philadelphia’s School Reform Commission has unilaterally canceled the current contract negotiated by the Philadelphia Federation of Teachers, the city’s teachers union.
The city officially canceled the contract on Monday morning, Philadelphia ABC affiliate WPVI reports.
The contract cancellation will not reduce teachers’ salaries one iota. Going forward, however, teachers (and some retirees) will be asked to fund part of their own health coverage. Specifically, starting in December they will be asked to pay between $21 and $200 each month for coverage.

Poor babies! At least they have jobs to afford that cost.
These ARE the people who voted for Democrats, right?
Suck it up libtards - you voted for this....twice!
What goes around comes around.
Teachers unions always support Democrats. So, when Democrats use up everybody elses money they have to pay to play.
welcome to the real world
Yulp, join the rest of us!!
You've had it soft for way to
long!
leaches...
teachers in Maryland don't feel sorry for you. We have been contributing to our pension fund for years and the governor keeps stealing from us. My return on my pension won't even cover the cost of my health insurance!
