I for one must side with Chesterfield County, Virginia.......in the case of not paying the "gap" overtime pay to
public safety workers due by Virginia State law....Why?.....Because Federal law says that the County is not obligated to due so. Just because some self-serving politicians in the Virginia General Assembly got this law passed is not enough for the citizens of the Chesterfield County to fork over all this overtime money....Citizens, we must take control.
Governor Rick Scott of Florida recently required State employees to contribute more towards their retirement fund......In doing so Scott said, "why should the taxpayers, many of whom do not have a retirement, continue to openly fund State employees who do have a retirement". I must say I feel the same way concerning the "Gap" pay issue in Chesterfield County. Why should the taxpayers pay for all this overtime, when many of them work in industries and occupations that are exempt from overtime pay.
Overtime pay is a precious and expensive commodity....I guess the Sheriff was hoping to get the financing to pay for all this overtime by raising court filing fees in Chesterfield County to the highest in the Nation!!!!!
Remember his tax and spend philosophy during the next election......Citizens we must take control!!!!
