PERS Thank You Message

July 18, 2017 by Hien Nguyen

Excerpts from PERS newsletter

PERS President’s Message:

No agreement ever satisfies every one, but the APA Board always goes to the wire to get the best it can. I want to thank our attorney for his hard work and I do not believe that we should ever go into negotiations without an attorney again. […]
