   Statement of Marty Beil on U.S. Supreme Court Decision regarding Age Bias Lawsuits
   ...
   State budget negotiators have reached "a new level of irresponsibility" by considering even deeper cuts to corrections facilities, according to Marty Beil, executive director of the Wisconsin State Employees Union, AFSCME Council 24.
   
   In a meeting on Tuesday, Democratic negotiators, led by Sen.
   ...
   Beil said. "It's completely irresponsible."
   
   Beil said facilities in Racine, Prairie du Chien and Black River Falls would be most likely to close under the devastating proposal.
   ...
   If it is a choice between keeping criminals locked up or pampering professors, I think I know what most people want," Beil said.
   
   Beil said legislators are trying to shift blame for policies they created. "They passed the laws, but now they don't want to deal with the lawbreakers. Fixing the budget shouldn't jeopardize public safety. It's time for real solutions, not false choices," Beil said.

   "This new agreed-upon class and compensation structure brings classes and wages closer to the health care marketplace while protecting incumbent employee," said Marty Beil, executive director of WSEU Council 24, American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME).

   Following a two-week, 18-city statewide tour during which record numbers of union members turned out to vote, 75% favored contract ratification in ballots counted today at union offices, according to Marty Beil, executive director of Council 24 of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees (AFSCME). Members from Council 24's six bargaining units began the ratification tour March 20 in Madison and concluded Tuesday in Platteville.
   
   "This is a landmark contract that recognizes the efforts of state employees in providing quality services to the citizens of Wisconsin and will help attract and retain workers in an increasingly competitive labor market," Beil said. He credited Gov.

   STATEMENT FROM MARTY BEIL, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR, ON U.S. SUPREME COURT DECISION REGARDING AGE BIAS LAWSUITS
   ...
   "With many of our correctional facilities operating way over capacity and concerns about sending inmates to out-of-state private prisons, Wisconsin is going to have to increase its probation and parole efforts," said Marty Beil, director of the Wisconsin State Employees Union.

   "Governor Thompson deserves credit for making good on his promise to workers to improve the pension system in a way that allows them to share in the benefits of a strong economy," said Marty Beil, director of AFSCME Council 24, which represents approximately 25,000 state employees.

   WSEU Director Marty Beil told the state Assembly's Committee on Family Law that Assembly Bill 500 is an unwanted and unwarranted intrusion into the labor relations framework established by the Legislature. In addition to prohibiting insurance coverage to domestic partners, the bill sponsored by Rep.

   "We are not experts in or advocates of alternative lifestyles, but we know something of fairness, equity and human dignity," Beil said. He told committee members the proposed law would curtail efforts between the union and state agencies to mutually promote satisfactory resolution of workplace issues.
   
   "It also violates our union's democratic internal process that allows our members to persuade their fellow workers that an issue is worthy of being raised in bargaining," Beil said.
   
   The proposal ignores the fact that there are a variety of caretaker situations outside of traditional relationships that would be precluded from support and assistance, Beil said.

   "The governor showed extraordinary leadership in rising above the partisan politics that brought the state budget process to a complete standstill," WSEU Director Marty Beil said as legislative leaders prepared to resume budget negotiations on Thursday.
   ...
   Beil said a budget proposal advanced by the governor over the weekend contained a number of innovative proposals that piqued legislators' interests and prompted them to resume negotiations.
   
   "The governor deserves credit for creating an environment that replaced a whole summer of political games with an atmosphere that hopefully will allow legislators to do what they were elected to do," Beil said.

   "The recommendations of the bishops certainly represent a higher road and more credible position than many legislators who want to pass tough-on-crime laws without supporting the funding needed to back up their rhetoric," said Marty Beil, director of the Wisconsin State Employees Union.
   
   The report, released Wednesday, called for the state to provide additional funding for job training, drug and alcohol treatment, anger management and other rehabilitation services intended to reduce recidivism. Beil praised the conference for supporting sufficient funding to eliminate the current shortage of correctional officers and provide probation and parole services that ensure public safety and assist ex-offenders in contributing to society.
   
   Recommendations also emphasized the need to provide special services for mentally, developmentally disabled and elderly prisoners ? issues the union and officials from the state Department of Corrections have been working to address.
   
   "The conference has pitched a broad tent by showing its concern for prison workers, our communities, inmates and those who carry out our criminal justice programs," Beil said.

   "This is another case in which legislators want to be portrayed as being tough on crime yet they're not willing to allocate the funding needed to back up their rhetoric," said Marty Beil, the union's executive director. Beil, a former probation and parole agent, responded to a consultant's recent recommendation to privatize the state's community corrections program and a study that found 22 percent of those charged with murder over a two-year period in Milwaukee were under some type of correctional supervision.
   
   The implication, he said, is that the state's 1,200 probation and parole agents aren't doing their jobs properly.
   
   "Wisconsin has a dedicated, hard-working force of agents who the judges and correctional system are giving a growing number of offenders ? many of whom have significant problems with mental illness, substance abuse and literacy," Beil said. "We can do our best to try to supervise and monitor them, but without adequate funding for such things as job training and drug and alcohol treatment we will never get to the root of the problem." He pointed out that only about 2% of the community corrections budget is allocated for treatment programs. Beil was particularly critical of the report released last week by the Wisconsin Policy Research Institute, in which consultant George Mitchell advocated privatizing the state's probation and parole functions.
   ...
   "What it really boils down to is that those who are declaring that the current system is broken and in need of reform ought to get out of their ivory towers and spend a week with a probation and parole agent to see what they're up against and how it can be fixed," Beil said.

   "In a free society, the KKK is entitled to publicly display its ignorance and bigotry with messages of hate, intolerance and violence toward others," said WSEU Executive Director Marty Beil.

   "While we may not always see eye to eye with the Governor on everything, he has been open and supportive of issues that benefit the workers we represent," Beil said. "Under his administration, we have made significant contract gains, a growing economy has helped avoid massive layoffs, and our work environments are safer and more secure."
   
   Beil expressed confidence that the administration's already strong relationship with its employees will continue to grow over the next four years of the governor's term in office.

   "Even though it was a long time in coming, this is a good initial contract that recognizes the significant contributions of these workers in making UW Hospital a nationally recognized facility," said Marty Beil, executive director of the Wisconsin State Employees Union.

   Council 24 Executive Director Martin Beil said the rally of correctional officers, youth counselors and pyschiatric care technicians was intended to raise public awareness of issues that the Department of Corrections has been unwilling to address.
   
   "Everybody wants to talk about getting tough on crime," Beil said. "But nobody wants to talk about the lack of resources and poor working environment inside these facilities, where the inmates are treated more fairly than the work
