Snyder adviser explored legislation to help low-income Detroit pensioners

Snyder adviser explored legislation to help low-income Detroit pensioners, he testified | Detroit Free Press | freep.com:
"Baird, who has held the title “transformation manager” in the Snyder administration, testified in a deposition Friday in the Detroit bankruptcy case he asked Detroit Emergency Manager Kevyn Orr for data that would help him analyze the possibility, but Orr never got back to him.

“I requested data on whether the data existed on the distribution by pension amount, numbers of pensioners and pension amount for the current roughly 20,000 pensioners,” Baird testified.

“He said it was a good question and he'd get back to me,” Baird said of Orr. 
“But to the best of my recollection he didn't.”"
