MEMORANDUM

Posted: December 27, 2022 03:39 PM
From: Representative Daniel J. Deasy
To: All House members
Subject: Cost-of-Living Adjustment for Retired Public -School Employees
 
Pennsylvania state law requires the General Assembly to enact legislation to give a raise to retired public school employees. We are all keenly aware of the rate of inflation.  Bear in mind that these retired educators and school personnel have not received a cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) in over 20 years. 

I believe we have a responsibility to ensure that educators who gave so much to their communities can afford to live with dignity in retirement. I am, therefore, introducing legislation that would provide retired public-school employees with a long overdue COLA. 

I hope you will join me in showing your support for our retired educators and school staff by joining me in co-sponsoring this legislation.
 
 
 


Introduced as HB1415
