The really sad thing about this...
Do you have any idea what this is going to cost the tax payers in legal fees? Seriously. What a waste!
And the day off every six weeks... why not just close state gov those days - totally closed - and save energy. Shut off lights, computers, etc. - have a "green day" if you will. That's REAL cost savings. Perhaps they could do that and have the off day once every 8 or 10 weeks as opposed to once every 6 weeks.
Just a thought and too much coffee.
