  • GSRA's Legislative
    Georgia State Retirees Association Communicating Our Goals to Legislators A Tool Kit Adopted November 2015 2016 GSRA Key Legislative Issues Support for a 3% across the board pay increase for all active state employees. Salaries have remained low for active state employees since 2008 and benefit costs have increased. Turnover among active employees has reached the 35-45% level making the delivery of services difficult and requiring constant re-training. These employees are Georgia’s future. Cost of Living Adjustment (COLA) for ERS Retirees The median income for all ERS retirees is only $21,750.00 a year with more than 60% of ERS retirees receiving less than $28,000.00. These retired public servants have not had a COLA in eight years, unlike many other retirees in our state. GSRA urges that a COLA of some amount, as funds are identified, be provided to ERS retirees to help restore the lost purchasing power due to inflation on these employees' fixed-benefit pensions over the past eight years. State Health Benefit Plan (SHBP) Transparency GSRA and other retiree organizations support legislation to provide transparency in the SHBP plan design and changes. Such legislation was introduced in both the 2014 and 2015 Sessions, and would include the addition of an advisory council to the DCH composed of education and general employee retirees. This would allow proposed plan modifications to be discussed and deliberated prior to adoption by DCH. GSRA urges that this legislation be passed and signed by the Governor. Changes in State Policy Regarding Health Benefits GSRA recognizes that the increasing cost of health benefits is a big state budget item, but urges recognition by state decision-makers that health benefits are a component of public employees' total benefits packages.
