This Tier 6 agreement is proof that when workers organize and stay united, change is possible. This is a victory for public workers across New York.

Because members across New York refused to give up, we secured meaningful progress for public workers — including lowering the retirement age from 63 to 58 after 30 years of service for members in the NYS and NYC Teachers’ Retirement Systems and reducing contribution rates for many other public employees.

This victory belongs to every member who spoke out, rallied, lobbied, and kept the pressure on. We are taking an important step toward building a fairer future for the next generation of public workers. And we’re going to keep fighting.
