Great Stuff, it is a call to arms for other communities around Laurel! Ancelli and Dorchester you got your concessions, now take your medicine so you and the rest of the county can heal. $90 million projected cuts and counting, 33 police personnel laid off around Pioneer City, Hey isn't the Jaime "stamato" Benoits district? Those layoffs are coming to a community close to you! Enough of the gamesmenship Judge Vitale pull your bill and help save the economy. FYI....... no way, no how will a Dem Gov appoint you to be a Judge. You need to come clean with the people and quit thinking of where you are going to land after you are termed out. Maybe I will see Daryl, Jamie and Kathy at the job expo next week, Lord knows you will be looking for work when the County drowns in debt......
