Friend,

The Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) and Government Pension Offset (GPO) are provisions that cost retirees, including federal retirees in the Civil Service Retirement System (CSRS), their hard-earned Social Security benefits. ?

This upcoming Tuesday, April 16, at 3 p.m. in Room 2020 of the Rayburn House Office Building, Congress will hold a hearing on repealing these unfair penalties impacting federal retirees. ?

Please consider attending the hearing and showing Congress that AFGE retirees support the repeal of the WEP/GPO. Be sure to wear your AFGE shirts and gear.
