Retired Illinois Federation of Teachers lobbyist David Piccioli, 65, wants the state’s Teachers Retirement System to honor a sweetheart deal he received through special legislation in 2007 that allowed him to apply his time as a lobbyist toward a teacher’s pension, the Chicago Tribune reports.
That law, signed by then Gov. Rod Blagojevich, allowed Piccioli and another union lobbyist, Steven Preckwinkle, to apply their time with the union toward a pension with the Teachers Retirement System after serving only one day as substitute teachers in Springfield."
