FROM THE APWU: [URGENT] Tell your Senators – Stop Stealing our Retirement!
Posted On: Dec 17, 2024
Dear Anthony,
After decades of fighting to right the wrongs of the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO), we are at the final step. The Social Security Fairness Act is now awaiting a vote in the Senate, and we need your help to make sure this bill becomes law and ends 40 years of unfair retirement theft.
For too long, postal and federal retirees who paid their fair share into Social Security have seen their benefits reduced or eliminated by the unjust WEP and GPO. This bill will repeal these harmful provisions and restore the benefits our retirees have rightfully earned.
Call the APWU Legislative Hotline at 844-402-1001 to be connected directly to your senators. Tell them to vote “YES” on the Social Security Fairness Act, H.R. 82. Postal and federal retirees deserve the benefits that they have earned.
After 40 years of retirement theft, the time to act is now. Together, we can take this final step and end these harmful provisions for good. Let’s make history and ensure a secure retirement for all.
In Solidarity,
APWU
