What is WEP?
The Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) reduces your Social Security (SS) benefit if you also earn a retirement benefit from a non-SS employment. Roughly 25% of state & local government employees in the US are not covered by SS.
In Kentucky, by law, teachers and some firefighters and police officers are not covered by SS.

I am retired law enforcement from Washington DC, MPDC Police. I have been letting my current and retired officers know about WEP & GPO affects on their retirement but only a few signed the petition or more importantly contacted their Senators and US House Representatives by emails and social media pages to cosponsors S. 1302 HR. 82. to repeal Windfall Elimination Provision & Government Pension Offset.
I calculated my SS benefits at age
62 with
WEP - $407 and without
WEP - $757 monthly.
At age 67 with
WEP - $795 and without
WEP - $1293 monthly.

retired or hope to retire and plan on earning 40 credits to earn Social Security, understand your SS benefits will be reduced up to $498 for WEP affected individuals or your survivor and or dependents benefits will be reduced 2/3rds and that could mean no SS benefits for GPO affected individuals.

Should your pension be reduced if you were a Police, Fire, Teacher or Railroad Worker? You earned a pension but still earned 40 credits working hard some where else and paid into SSA. Ask Congress to repeal Windfall Elimination Provision & Government Pension Offset.The WEP- Windfall Elimination Provision effect over 2 million retires from Police, Fire, Rallroad and Teachers and other careers across the United States who retired and didn't pay into Social Security but also worked a career and paid into Social Security and earned 40 credits. SSA benefits should not be reduced. GPO-Government Pension Offset effects your spousal or survivor benefits by reducing their benefits by two thirds. I hope you will sign the petition and don't forget to share also please notify your Senators and Representatives to correct a wrong.
