‼️MAJOR SOCIAL SECURITY ANNOUNCEMENT‼️ The Social Security Administration will immediately begin sending Social Security benefit increases and retroactive payments for those affected by WEP & GPO. Police officers, teachers, nurses, and other state and local public servants across Louisiana will finally receive the correct Social Security payments. These folks have waited years for this day. The fight took too long, but let’s focus on the victory.
TRTA & ME stories are a new series of stories focused on our members' amazing lives. This week's story is about the founder of Houston-Harris County Retired Teacher Association, William Leonard Davis. trta.org/houston-harris…
Unfortunately, TRTA Executive Director Tim Lee is ill today. The Facebook/YouTube live event is cancelled. Please plan to join Tim next Friday, February 14.
We are launching a member-centric series of stories featuring the amazing things our members are up to! Learn more here: trta.org/introducing-tr…
H.R. 82 will be signed by @JoeBiden today at 3 p.m. Central! Watch here: whitehouse.gov/live/
Look who's in Washington, D.C, it's Tim Lee! Tim is in town for the H.R. 82 bill signing, along with national colleagues Shawn Duhamel, Pam Alexandroff, and Susan Dixon.
A friendly reminder that if you appreciate the work we do, PLEASE JOIN US! It may be the best $35 you ever spend. trta.org/join-trta/
VICTORIOUS AT LAST! trta.org/wep-and-gpo-re…
The procedural maneuvers necessary to get H.R. 82 ready for a vote are underway. Please stay tuned as we are all working toward a hopeful vote as quickly as possible. Please continue to keep up the pressure and believe that through our members, all things are still possible!
Leader Schumer filed cloture on H.R.82, Social Security Fairness Act of 2023, and filled the amendment tree.
The U.S. Senate is set to vote on GPO/WEP repeal next week! Use our Action Alert to contact your Texas Senator and ask for their support! trta.org/u-s-senate-to-…

TX Retired Teachers retweeted
A vote on the Social Security Fairness Act in the Senate still hasn't been scheduled... It is unfair to penalize Americans who have taught our children, protected our streets, and ran into burning buildings. It is time to repeal WEP & GPO!
