Statehouse votes to curb Vietnam veterans preference plan
The Public Service Committee narrowly approved a redrafted Civil Service reform plan ending absolute preference for all but Vietnam veterans. It would grant 10 points to disabled veterans and five to others, with five years after discharge for Vietnam veterans. The panel also backed quicker eligible lists, earlier exam applications, and judicial review of appeals while opposing changes to Civil Service Commission voting thresholds. Veterans groups and union leaders opposed the package.
