Senato: State retirees must stand united against benefits changes

As a Delaware retiree following the ongoing situation regarding the proposed changes to the state retirement insurance program, it is amazing how quiet most of the legislators have been publicly.

It was good to read all of the comments that were appearing daily in the Delaware State News, which show that both retirees and state workers are opposed to any change of the promise made by the state to the workers at the time of their hiring. Keep up the good work.

To make sure our voice is heard loud and clear, let your senator and your representative of your district know not only how you feel but let them tell you via their return answer to you how they feel about this situation.

Let the legislators know that we will not forget at their reelection times. We have the power of the vote. United, we stand strong. Divided, we fall. We must not weaken as time goes by. We must be diligent.
