Police & Firefighter Associations Fire Back at Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings

Eleven different Police & Firefighters Associations have now responded to Dallas Mayor Mike Rawlings' letter to taxpayers.

In the open letter to Mayor Rawlings, the groups accuse him of misleading taxpayers over the current pension crisis.

A portion of the letter reads "the Mayor has turned his back on the men and women who risk their lives to protect Dallas. The Mayor has used scare tactics, bullied police and fire fighters and provided false testimony during Texas legislative hearings."

Mayor Rawlings issued a letter to taxpayers saying the proposed bill would put the taxpayers on the hook for more than $1 billion dollars over the next 30 years. Rawlings went on to say the city would be forced to either give up some services or deal with a tax hike.
