A POWRS Report
The situation is stark. Woefully few Americans have properly saved for retirement! Even those with access to 401 (k)'s have not saved enough. WI is not immune to these national trends.A shocking 22% of all seniors above age 65 depend upon Social Security for 90% or more of their income (AARP)
The Baltimore Teachers Union joined with the rest of the Baltimore Education Coalition and concerned parties from all across the state to call on Governor Larry Hogan to release Geographic Cost of Education Index (GCEI) funding.
Cast against a backdrop of a city in unrest, AFT-Maryland held their triennial convention in Pikesville, MD on May 1-2, 2015. Delegates from our local unions across the state came out and joined in what was a modest celebration of all the Union had accomplished over the past three years.
The Calcasieu Federation of Teachers, Local 6047, hosted another successful end-of-year social for our members and guests. Thanks for the great job you do educating the workers of tomorrow. Enjoy your summer.
Congratuations to Harlem High School senior Monica Gross! She was the recipient of this year's $500 Tony Babcock HFT scholarship.
