Civil Service Extended to All Public Employees

This is a good addition.

Voting 12-4 with all Republicans in favor of the bill and all Democrats against it, the Legislature's Joint Finance Committee added new civil-service protections for local government employees

Those local civil-service systems would have to address grievances for employee termination, employee discipline and workplace safety.

Otherwise, the Walker Plan is intact.

School, county, and municipal workers deserve civil service protections.
