NYSUT: Rally to Demand Fixes to Tier 6 on Oct 6th
Since 2010, newly created pension tiers (Tier 5 and Tier 6) have been enacted that reduce the retirement benefits for newly hired public employees, including public school teachers and School-Related Professionals.
Tier 6 requires public employees to work until age 63, up to 40 years, in order to retire without penalty. Public employees in Tier 6 can no longer retiree at age 55 with 30 years of service without suffering from significant penalties that reduce their overall pension.
Join NYSUT local labor leaders from across Long Island for a march and rally to demand fixes to Tier 6 so that we can recruit and retain the next generation of public employees.
Long Island Fix Tier 6 Rally
Monday, October 6 | 4:00 PM - 6:00 PM
