Tell Albany the Truth About Pensions! Call 877-255-9417 The economic downturn has impacted the entire state, including the members of the public workforce. Like every member of the middle class, public employees have had to sacrifice and do more with less since the global economy faltered beginning in 2008. Public employee retirement benefits have been reduced under the new pension tier enacted in 2010, Tier 5. The Tier 5 reforms will save New York taxpayers $35 billion over the next 30 years. Call Now- Say "NO" to Tier 6!! http://ow.ly/i/r2wY

Sign the Petition! Support Public Education!
