✅ Did you know for the first time in over 30 plus years there will be an election on May 8th at your school to vote for Teacher-Member TRS trustee?

✅ Both candidates were invited to take part in this forum. You deserve to hear from both, Christina McGrath and Ben Morgenroth. Bring your questions.

✅ Vote for Ben on May 8! He’s the only candidate with financial and investment expertise and experience. He answers to you, not the political machine.

✅ Help spread the word to your UFT and CUNY colleagues and friends!

Tier 6 is MUCH, MUCH WORSE than they're admitting.

Even with about $100k recovered over a 40 year career with the new Tier 6 legislation, Tier 6ers are losing out on hundreds of thousands more!

Tier 6 members lose up to $1.4 million in retirement earnings compared to Tier 4.

This doesn't include the up to $2+ million lost with the TDA 7.0% giveback.

Some members in Tier 6 are decades older than Tier 4 members. Some went out to get more education or industry experience to bring to the classroom, then got hit with the multi-million dollar Tier 6 penalty as a result of that choice.

We need Tier 6 EQUITY, sooner than later!
Or we stand to lose more as we wait.

✅ One of the steps we can take right now as we organize to fight to fix Tier 6 is to vote for Ben Morgenroth for TRS Pension Trustee.

✅ He is the most qualified candidate and is on our side in advocating against the erosion of our benefits.

🗳️Vote Ben Morgenroth for TRS on May 8th. Voting will take place at our schools.

RT @educatorsofnyc: Prior to 2009, UFT members received 8.25% return on our fixed return TDA — until it was negotiated away.

All other tit…

Vote for Ben Morgenroth, fellow NYC public schools teacher, for the NYC TRS trustee board. Voting will take place at your school on May 8th.

Fix Tier 6, now. Not later! We’ve seen cuts to cuts to our pension, just like our healthcare. Time for change!
