Do the republicans on our Muskegon County Commission always vote with the big union democrats?

Well,
They certainly did on EVERY budget busting union contract in 2010 and so far in 2011.
Those union contracts account for 70-80% of the entire county discretionary budget!
The dems, at least, are open and honest about their support for more pay, benefits and spending on county union employees.
But our republican representatives Marve Engle, Bob Scolnik and John Snider......... well, their votes sort of speak louder than their words.

Are they proud of their votes?

Our county is out of money and all of those union contracts have triple pay/compensation increases EVERY year.

Are they proud?

Call them.

Ask them!

Those contracts are killing our county!
