Whereas, new UFT members who join the Teachers’ Retirement System after March 31, 2012 are entered in Tier 6,
Whereas, members in Tier 6 contribute from 3% to 6% to their pensions as long as they work,
Whereas, members in Tier 6 cannot retire without very reduced benefits until reaching age 63 while making a higher contribution,
Whereas, many other city agencies such as police, fire, sanitation can retire with full pension after 22 years of service,
Whereas, the UFT, in the past, lobbied successfully for a 25-55 pension plan for Tier 4 members,
Whereas, the UFT, in the past, won other significant pension improvements in the NY State Legislature.
Resolved, that the UFT lobby the City and State to equalize and improve the Tier 6 pension and include all UFT members in this campaign.

Wait a minute. What about Tier IV? Can I have the 22 year benefit?
Grown women near retirement age shouldn't be sitting at their desks crying because of the verbal abuse.
Is it still acceptable to make the young teachers cry?
I had a student vaping in class on Friday. He wasn’t even vaping nicotine, he was vaping weed and getting high. I called a dean and all they did was have the parents pick him up. He didn’t even get suspended. Is there a new rule that doesn’t allow students to get suspended for getting high in class?
Obama hasn't spent a lot of time talking about how dangerous Trump is, but sure does love talking about how dangerous the left is.
IF they get a 25/55 they need to let anyone in tier 4 and 5 opt into it to.
How about a buyout for everyone? I have under 20 years, would gladly go.
We have a tier 5?
Might this lead to another giveback?
The debate Wednesday...Useless. I am learning nothing here. Not one thing. Dems will supply every thing to everyone except rich white people who will pay “their fair share.” That fair share will be decided by a socialist government that does not respect achievement or private property.
Did it happen on the first floor? Well obviously thst student was not high.

How about a full pension COLA
This is why we should discourage our next generation from becoming teachers. They only see the good and a little of the bad maybe but they don't get to see the ugly until it's too late. When there is a teaching shortage crisis across the country, then the d.o.e and everyone will be sorry for their past errors.
