Healthcare is of paramount importance as one gets older, as more conditions usually develop, requiring care. To suddenly be deprived of the level of healthcare we have previously enjoyed so that the active teachers can get their raise is patently unfair. The city can save money elsewhere--such as ceasing its ridiculous existence as a sanctuary city, giving untold millions of dollars to people who don't belong here in the first place. Retirees spent decades of their lives in service to the city, and this is how they "reward" us? By trying to pull a fast on and penalize the most vulnerable, the older UFT members? I can hardly wait to cast my vote against Mulgrew and his perfidious crew of duplicitous vermin.

Unity screwed retirees on Medicare. Retirees will screw Mulgrew come spring election. I’ve spoken to every colleague who has retired in the past 5 years. They are more than pissed and they vote.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15921757.post-15484690444275477242021-11-30T07:47:05.476-05:002021-11-30T07:47:05.476-05:00Must be nice to be a member of a union that explai...Must be nice to be a member of a union that explains what the hell is going on and is not selling out its members.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
