  • Oppose Constitutional Convention Q4: Repeal GPO/WEP Q5
    LEGISLATORS RESPONSES TO THE LRTA SURVEY The Louisiana Retired Teachers Association surveyed political candidates during the 2019 election cycles. The Association asked the candidates the following questions: 1. LRTA opposes any legislation that would alter the defined benefit structure of the Teachers’ Retirement System of Louisiana (TRSL). During previous legislative sessions, several bills were created to switch the current defined benefit plan provided by TRSL to a hybrid plan. LRTA continues to oppose these bills, such as SB 14 (2018) and HB 28 (2019). If similar bills appeared in future legislative sessions, would you oppose or veto these bills? 2. LRTA supports Permanent Benefit Increases (PBIs) when the criteria to grant one is met. TRSL benefit recipients have not received a PBI since 2016. Would you support legislation to grant a PBI should TRSL meet the criteria to grant one? 3. LRTA opposes constitutional conventions that would remove budgetary protections for education and retirement. If constitutional convention is proposed in a future legislative session, would you oppose or veto these bills? 4. LRTA supports the repeal of the Government Pension Offset (GPO) and the Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP). The GPO and the WEP are Social Security federal provisions that reduce retired public employee’s individual Social Security and survivor benefits. Retired teachers in Louisiana are subject to the GPO and WEP. Given the opportunity, would you support the repeal of the GPO and WEP? 5. LRTA supports teacher and support staff pay raises and adequately funding education through the Minimum Foundation Program (MFP). Do you support teacher pay raises and adequately funding education through the MFP?

  • Louisiana State University Student Government
    Louisiana State University Student Government Dear LSU Students and Friends, Students in the state of Louisiana are more relevant than ever before. Before the release of the first Higher Education Report Card, students pursuing a degree were not valued in the state of Louisiana—proven by the 41% cut to higher education over the past 8 years. Contrary to popular belief, investment in higher education is the best societal investment that our state lawmakers can make. Because of our initial report card, leaders in the legislature are listening. The Higher Education Report Card is a huge step forward in ensuring that students are heard in the state of Louisiana. The requests are clear. We want stability in higher education and a sincere commitment to invest in the future of our students. We extend our sincerest gratitude to the governor and lawmakers for their work during the longest legislative session in the history of the state. Unfortunately, a session ending in a fully funded higher education and a partially funded TOPS is not ideal for Louisiana’s students. My hope is that the Higher Education Report Card can shed light onto the difficult votes that our lawmakers made during these sessions to ensure that our education would be fully funded. At the same time, I hope students will see that some of their own lawmakers are still not valuing our education as much as they can. We also hope that students will continue to be involved with the affairs of our state capitol by participating in marches and making calls to their legislators.

In the case of retirees, we want our elected officials to protect our current Defined Benefit plan guaranteed in our state constitution.
