Clamor grows to rein in California pension benefits
California is examining large public pensions amid high costs and generous rules. Parole agent Gilbert Robles and others retired then returned to state service, drawing six figure pensions and later full pay. Gov. Brown proposed changes to curb abuses, but many current workers remain unaffected. The debate centers on retirement basis rules, post retirement work, and potential ballot measures to further reduce benefits.
