On
Labor Day –
Considering cuts in
the public employee
workforce
By
Senator
Moore
Talk
show hosts, newspaper
columnists, bloggers,
political opponents
and a variety of
citizens have claimed
that the
Patrick-Murray
Administration has
added thousands of
publicly funded jobs
at a time when the
state and nation are
experiencing the
deepest economic
recession since the
Great Depression of
the Nineteen Thirties.
Those claims have
fueled public anger
because it contrasts
with the loss of jobs
in the private sector
as well as general
antipathy toward
“big government.”
The facts, however,
seem to contradict the
general opinion of the
situation.
The
Patrick administration
says it has eliminated
almost 2,500 jobs
under its control
since state revenues
began to collapse 18
months ago, and a
Boston Globe analysis
of payroll data
roughly confirms that
figure.

This includes stocking basic supplies (batteries, non-perishable foods, bottled water, prescriptions, etc.) that can be used during an emergency or in the event that power is
lost and establishing a “Family Emergency Communication Plan” to ensure that all loved ones are
safe.
