We need a union voice on the ERS Board of Trustees
VOTE FOR NEIKA CLARK!
TSEU has run a candidate in every ERS Board election since 1989 and this time around will be no different. After having gone through our screening committee, the TSEU Executive Board has recommended Neika Clark to be our candidate. This choice has been officially ratified by the elected delegates of the General Assembly (Sept. 19, 2020).
Neika Clark’s ERS platform:
- Keeping our ERS funds strong!
Neika will push for increased state contributions to our health care plans and pension fund and support continued responsible investing to strengthen our pension fund. - Fighting for what we deserve!
She will oppose any attempts to convert our pension plan to a 401(k) style plan and the new high-deductible, consumer-driven health plans that undermine our benefits. - A Cost of living raise for retirees!
Neika believes state employees should retire with dignity. That means
cost of living increases that keep up with the rising cost of living. ERS retirees have not seen a COLA since 2001. That’s way too long! - Listening to the needs of workers!
Accessible to assist any employee with health care and/or pension issues, Neika will be the voice of front-line state employees on the Board.)
