A strong defined-benefit program attracts and retains a trained and committed workforce that includes teachers, first responders, and healthcare workers. As local and state governments struggle to recruit and retain staff, the value of a pension makes a quantifiable impact.
The promise of financial security in retirement is why so many of our members chose public service here in NC. It's been a powerful recruiting tool for more than 80 years. #ncpol
Alaska offers a cautionary tale for legislators on SB 743 as it seeks to remove UNC Health workers from the Retirement/Health Plans. This is counter to attracting/retaining much-needed healthcare workers and costs taxpayers. #ncgrea #ncpol protectpensions.org/2021/04/14/vic…

As small towns & rural communities face shrinking populations & economic challenges, a new report finds a positive economic contributor to these communities is dollars from pension plans. Report: bit.ly/3uH8tNI July 14 Webinar: bit.ly/3z2bHhC #Retirement
Good research done here and applicable to North Carolina as we consider the factors that will strengthen the economy of many rural communities.
No matter where in the 🇺🇸 you are from, public pensions are an investment in communities that pays for itself. #ncpol
What's going on here?
Retired governmental employees are grateful for additional money in their checks, but the losses of purchasing power for those on fixed incomes due to #inflation are severe and irreversible, unless a recurring #COLA in lockstep with inflation rates is implemented. #ncpol
The desire to serve is the foundation of this great country. Let's keep the focus.
Where Would We Be Without Public Workers? protectpensions.org/2022/04/13/whe… via @ProtectPensions
A 2019 survey by @NIRSonline showed that roughly 90 percent of all state and local government employees support public pensions and believe their elimination would weaken public safety, education, and make it harder to attract quality workers. #ncpol
