Fix Tier 2 Pensions!
Cahokia Federation of Teachers, Local #1272
Dear CFT Union Member,
Our statewide union, the IFT, is joining forces with other union members across the state in the We Are One coalition. From April 15-18, we're going to email and call our Illinois lawmakers and urge them to fix the broken Tier 2 system. The more members who take action, the louder our voice will be!
We know that Tier 2 pension benefits are unfair. I'm sure you agree that every member of our union - no matter when they began working - should be treated equally and deserves to retire with financial security after a lifetime of public service.
Last week, IFT President Dan Montgomery reached out via email about the upcoming "Fix Tier 2 Pensions!" Week of Action from April 15-18. This week, seize the chance to connect with your legislators by using the provided web link to call or email them in support of our union's efforts to address Tier 2 pensions.
We encourage your participation. Learn more about how easy it is to participate WEB LINK. You can also download and share this flyer. FLYER LINK.
Your involvement is crucial in effecting change.
Thank you!
In Unity,
Wendy Lochmann, CFT 1272 President
