Check PEF’s endorsements, then vote Nov. 7
November 7, voters will go to the
polls to select our government leaders.
PEF Retirees urges you to seriously consider your union’s endorsement when
casting your votes for the candidates that PEF’s careful research found will
support our programs, policies and initiatives.
(See list.)
If you ever wonder why PEF Retirees can not do more to protect and enhance your
pension and health benefits, it’s because some of the leaders who currently hold
state and national political office are not listening to us. We can make our
voices heard clearer than ever, now, in the election booth.
Don’t be fooled by the slick TV commercials and other political advertising and
rhetoric that flood the airwaves the next several weeks.
If it’s money against money, we lose to the special interests. Our power is in
our votes and the half-million union retirees in New York state can be
formidable. Let’s show the politicians what senior power is all about.
Many of us have wondered what became of our dreams of America’s destiny as the
greatest nation ever created. It is incumbent upon all of us to demonstrate this
dream is still alive and that seniors have a true sense of history.
We can do this best when we vote.
PEF Retirees can be effective on your behalf only if you support candidates who
support our issues and truly have our best interests at heart.
Deliver for us, and we’ll deliver for you.
In addition to casting your well-informed votes in November, you can do two more
things to help PEF Retirees become a more efficient and effective advocate for
you.
First, make sure we have your current e-mail address so we can keep you informed
of legislation and other news that will affect you. Simply e-mail us at
retirees@pef.org and give us your name and
postal address, along with your e-mail address.
Second, sign-up for automatic deduction of your PEF Retirees annual dues from
your pension check. It will take $3 off your dues and eliminate the trouble of
mailing them in.
And it saves us time and postage that we can use to better serve you and
advocate for your issues. Help us to help you.
