The headline reads “Florida’s 66 county clerks back Pam Childers in Escambia County retirement plan lawsuit.”
Gosh, all the county clerks believe Childers was right to declare the 401(a) retirement plan for the county commissioners and senior staff and support her cutting the contributions to the fund. That’s amazing considering the state association refused to back Childers when she wanted the state legislature to take up the issue.
But – and there’s always a but at the daily – you have to read further. Buried in the article is this sentence:
“FCCC’s legal brief did not address the legality of the county’s 401(a) program.”
Someone’s bias is showing again.
