Congratulations!
At its December meeting, the Board of
Education accepted Mrs. Fallon's retirement
and appointed Dr. Harrigan as her successor
effective September 2017. It will be months
before the changes occur, and we'll have so
many opportunities to say Thank You and
Congratulations.
HHH was one of the largest contributors to this years efforts. Our efforts
will go far to support research in putting an end to breast cancer.
Our calls may not always produce a win, but turnout from NYSUT voters
is a strong reminder to elected leaders that we have the ability to impact
elections, and that they need to listen when we speak.
Our trip to the city is a fast-growing, popular outing we take each year. If
you havent head west with us to NYC or east with us to the vineyards,
youre missing a great time to unwind with colleagues!
Our Retirement Systems are among the best-run in the country even
the world. Its up to us to understand them, appreciate them, and defend
them when called upon to do so!
This year, weve gone out of our way to help members get informed
about retirement options. Three days with the System made it possible
for so many members to get their questions answered.

Although its possible to amend the Constitution without a full convention, you can expect an aggressive campaign to be
launched, insinuating that our system is a ticking timebomb or that a Convention is the only way to fix the problems in
Albany. Both statements are grossly inaccurate. Led by haters, the uninformed and the misinformed will turn out to vote
en masse. Start thinking now about what you can do to ensure your retirement security is not threatened. We will call
upon each of you to do your part.
Maybe corporate tax breaks can create jobs, but so can strong
retirement systems. And those have the added benefit of giving
earned financial security to workers as they enter their golden
years.
