Things are Tough in Sacramento So We Don't Yet Have Final Word on UC Coverage

We're still waiting for the definitive answer as of Friday afternoon as to whether UC is covered by the governor's pension proposal. But apparently, folks at the Dept. of Finance and Legislature are busy with other matters:

(The budget must be worse than anyone imagined.)

Folks in the legislature have also been busy:

When things settle down up north and we get final info, we'll post it.

UPDATE: UC's coverage by the governor's pension plan has now been confirmed. More info will be provided as it becomes available.
