governor quinn in illinois just "terminated" the afscme unions contract with the state

http://www.afscme31.org/news?id=0454

we backed him against the teabagger republican and he pulls a walker on us. although it`s not a death sentence compared to walker`s it`s still a huge betrayal for the 40,000 afscme members.

there will be many "job actions" across the state against quinn and his backers in the democratic machine.

'The administration has dropped the demand for a pay cut, but is still insisting on a wage freeze.'

Sounds rough.
