AFSCME Sub-chapter 161
Dear Member:
The AFSCME Retirees will meet at the Wildwood Tavern in Niles on Wednesday, June 21st. The meeting will begin at 11:30AM. Our speaker is our Council 31 Retiree Coordinator, Ms. Kate Jamruk.
Kate will have news of the challenges we are facing in Springfield and in Washington. If you are a state or state university retiree and are having any problems with the switch to the new health insurance provider, call or e-mail me first. I want you to have your information organized before Kate arrives. Kate and Martha Merrill, Council’s benefits specialist, are working together to smooth the transition.
This week, call your senators, Durbin and Duckworth, and tell them to oppose the closed door AHCA senate version. We don’t want a repeat of what the house Republicans did.
Sincerely,
Charlie Hogan, President
