The State Troopers Fraternal Association has had NO conversations nor has any State Police Association agreed to the Governor’s Budget proposal. There has been NO correspondence from the Governor’ s Office referring to suggested changes or proposals for our pension system. The STFA vehemently objects to any kind of pension “freeze” or inferior cafeteria style health care. Every member of the State Police have kept up on our end of “Chapter 78”.

We will review the Commission Report that was kept secret and held from us until after yesterday’s budget address.

We urge the Governor to follow the Court order from the Superior Court, due to the Administration’s willfully breaking the law the Governor signed, no different than any other laws that we as sworn law enforcement officers take an oath to abide by and enforce.
