pension and benefits

Watch the Assembly budget committee meet as Gov. Chris Christie announces plans to slash the state's contribution to the public workers' pension system by almost $2.5 billion for the combined fiscal years.

Nearly one in three New Jersey School Superintendents chose to leave their jobs in the 2011-2012 school year, and a lot of the turnover is pinned on salary and other changes.

Many political experts and a lot of Democrats blame a lack of public worker union support for former Governor Jon Corzine's loss to Chris Christie in 2009.

The legislature could soon have the authority to force judges to pay more for their pensions and health benefits if you give lawmakers that power in November.
