Some of Our Most Vulnerable Retired City Workers are Now Facing Poverty

They Need Our Help

There are 4,500 city retirees, many of whom are pushing  85-years-old, who are struggling to pay their rent and put food on the table. Changes in the city charter compromised their pension and now they are forced to live on as little as $22,000 a year. They need their supplemental COLA restored NOW before they are all gone.

Countdown to Nov. 8th Election
