The Trumbull Retired Teachers Association aims to enhance all phases of a retired teacher’s life. We address financial, health, recreational and legislative interests . TRTA has been recognized at local, state and national levels for the work of individual members and committee work. TRTA works closely with the community , sponsoring spelling bees and donating scholarships on an annual basis. TRTA meets bi-monthly at noon on the second Tuesday of the month.

Action Alert # 53 We Have a New House Bill!– HR 1795 ssfairness.com
We are VERY happy to announce that a bipartisan bill was introduced in the House last Friday, April 26, to repeal the Government Pension Offset and the Windfall Elimination Provision. It was introduced by Representatives Rodney Davis (R-IL) and Adam Schiff (D-CA). WE THANK THEM! The text of the bill should appear on www.thomas.loc.gov in a few days. You can always check that site to read the bill (search for the bill by number) and to see if your Congressperson has signed on as a co-sponsor. We are expecting a similar bill to be introduced in the Senate very soon.

Urge your Representative to support and co-sponsor the bill to end GPO and WEP, and restore Social Security fairness! This is easy! Go to www.house,gov, find their website, bookmark it and take a few minutes to let them know you are expecting their support. Repeat this process every month.
We need remind them constantly of this problem.
TAKE ACTION TODAY! Thank you!
