No more iphones for state employees? Damn.. This is getting serious.
——
First to suffer from this year’s CA state budget crisis?
Cell phones.
New Gov. Jerry Brown today ordered the collection and return of 48,000 state government-paid cell phones – half of those now in use – by June 1.
The Democratic governor estimated that cutting the use of cellphones by state employees in half will save the state $20 million a year.
“It is difficult for me to believe that 40 percent of all state employees must be equipped with taxpayer-funded cell phones,” Brown said in a written statement.
