Thank you, Tim and staff, for all your dedicated help in our plea for a COLA and stipend. Keeping us informed of its progress has been a great help to our anxiety about the progress of the bills through the legislature. Linda and Will Ed Mathews Galena Park I.S.D. retirees
Thanks for working so hard for all retirees this session and every session. We appreciate you and your staff and dedication to help us during this time of need because of high inflation! Thanks
I’m very grateful for all,of your hard & persistent work to help all of us retirees! I’m one of those retirees that have waited 20 years for a Cola increase. I am holding my breath & hope this truly passes in November! Thank you & very appreciative.
Thanks for everything you have done for Texas Teachers! When does the governor sign the bill? Now is it possible to get better dental and vision insurance? Twila Hixon
Also why do the citizens vote for the approval of our increases . That makes us very nervous that people will Not understand and they will think their school taxes go up ! We need to prove to them that , that is not true !
Because of the amount of money that would be spent on the COLA ($3.2 B). It requires voter approval. The supplemental checks, however, do not rquire it.
I realize all retired teachers are suffers from inflation , even the earlier retirees. However , those that retired before 2000 have extremely suffered . We have not had a COLA since 2001 . Therefore , we are living in the same salary for 22 years . We are all hurting and have had to dip into savings .
Thank you so very much for your dedication to retirees. I am disheartened that the governor is truly holding the stipend hostage because of differences with Lt Gov. I too retired 2001 and am in dire financial straits line so many others. 😢

If you took the Drop Program and did not retire for many years after doing the drop program, will you get the percentage from the drop year ?
