The Texas Retired Teachers Association (TRTA) believes that the Texas Legislature should authorize and assist in funding a necessary cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for retired educators!<\/p>\n

Inflation is at its highest level in more than 40 years. TRS retirees are bearing the brunt of this record inflation disproportionately, as their lifetime earnings are based on wages that were considerably lower during their previous decades in the workforce. Additionally, TRS does not provide for inflationary increases in pension benefits unless authorized by the Texas Legislature.<\/p>\n

TRTA believes action to help TRS retirees is possible this session. The Texas Comptroller reports a $32.7 billion budget surplus. TRS retirees have helped add to the surplus through inflation-driven tax revenues that they cannot afford. It is critical that TRS retirees be at the top of the state\u2019s priorities when spending the additional revenue. A record surplus and healthy economic stabilization fund balance present the unique opportunity to help retirees fight back against inflation by providing a COLA.<\/p>\n

TRTA needs all its members to center Senators\u2019 attention on this issue!\u00a0Send your email today<\/a>!<\/p>\n
