Second City Cop Blog: Gives the Chicago FOP 7 & Mike Shields some Kudos.... (Doesn't happen too often)

FOP Ahead of the Curve

The FOP doesn't like us much. We'll agree that the feeling is mutual.

But we'll give credit where credit is due concerning certain parts of the Contract negotiations. They campaigned hard against the PBPA Sergeants attempted sellout of all the other city unions and helped send that Contract offer down in flames nearly 9-to-1.

A sergeant reader sent us the June update of "Contract Issues for Interest Arbitration" and the closing paragraph states the following:
  • According to our attorneys, the city's continued inclusion of references to pension funding is unenforceable under our collective bargaining agreement. Therefore, pension issues cannot be awarded to either party by an arbitrator.
Really? But wasn't that part of the Contract sent out to the Sergeants for a vote?
