Legislative Actions
One of RPEN’s chief functions is to educate state and local governments regarding issues that affect retired public employees.
Some of RPEN’s efforts have contributed to constitutional protections of our PERS system, post-retirement increases to retiree pension benefits and an awareness of the importance of a solvent, sound retirement system.
One of the biggest concerns of retirees is health care issues related to the state’s Public Employees’ Benefits Program (PEBP) and other local government health insurance plans.
RPEN advocates on behalf of retired public employees at regular and special sessions of the state Legislature and at interim hearings between legislative sessions.
