Employees worry about what Illinois’ Stateville Prison closing will mean for their jobs – CBS2 (Chicago)

AFSCME Local 1866 represents about 900 Stateville workers. "It's pretty frustrating," president Eugene Washington said. "Right now, they just want to get rid of the inmates—the individuals in custody—and we are left hanging with what they are going to do with us."

Ya know what AFSCME keep supporting and donating (bribery) to the Pritzker and Democratic Party. You deserve what you get, wake up. I sleep on a mattress who do you sleep with.

All AFSCME needs to do is follow CTU’s mentality. Then, if the prison kept one inmate, the 900 workers could still work there.
