Dear National Education Association Retiree:
I’m very pleased to have won the recommendation of the NEA
for President of the United States.
One of the chief reasons for NEA’s recommendation is my
longtime support for public education, including ensuring
retirement security for the dedicated men and women who
teach our nation’s children. For example, I strongly
oppose the Government Pension Offset and the Windfall
Elimination Provision – both of which unfairly penalize
public employees – and I oppose mandatory Social Security
coverage for public employees.
In the United States Senate, I represent the people of
Massachusetts, a state in which most public employees,
including educators, do not participate in Social
Security. As a result, I’m very familiar with public
pensions and the unfair treatment that public pensioners
receive under the Social Security system.
Social Security is a wonderful system for the vast
majority of Americans. It provides income protection for
millions of families, including children as well as senior
citizens. But for millions of other Americans – public
employees and retirees – Social Security benefits have been
reduced or eliminated for reasons that make little sense to
me.
The Government Pension Offset (GPO) cuts Social Security
spouse and widow benefits that were earned by a public
employee’s husband or wife. When you consider that a
spouse who never worked a day is entitled to receive full
Social Security spousal benefits with no offset, the GPO
seems a particularly harsh penalty for those who have spent
their careers serving their communities.
The Windfall Elimination Provision (WEP) cuts Social
Security benefits that public employees earned themselves
through private sector jobs held at various stages of their
work lives. These workers made the same payroll
contributions to Social Security as other workers with
similar earnings, but are penalized simply because they
spent part of their careers in public service.
In the Senate, I’ve been a strong advocate for reforming or
repealing both the GPO and the WEP. I’ve introduced (as
chief sponsor in the last two sessions of Congress) S.1011 –
a bill to modify the WEP and help retired educators keep
more of their earned Social Security benefits. I am also a
cosponsor of S. 349, the GPO/WEP repeal bill, and S. 363, a
bill to eliminate much of the GPO penalty.
I’ve urged all my Senate colleagues to support this
legislation in order to right a wrong that should have been
corrected a long time ago. If nothing is done about the
offsets in the current session of Congress, I promise to
use all my influence as the next President of the United
States to finally get rid of the GPO and WEP.
Also, as President, I will make sure that strengthening
Social Security will never mean undermining public pension
plans. As you may know, several proposals to maintain
solvency in Social Security have included a requirement for
all state and local governments to start participating in
the national system. It is my view that this would provide
very little help for Social Security, while potentially
harming a lot of public employees and retirees.
Mandating Social Security participation is a bad idea, and
as President I will continue to oppose it.
Of course, it will take your support in the presidential
election for there to be a Kerry Administration.
Therefore, I urge you to vote for the Kerry-Edwards ticket
on November 2. Stand up for us on Election Day, and our
administration will stand up for you each and every day
we’re in office.
Sincerely,
John F. Kerry

Hello,
My name is Kristen and I am helping my daughter's 3rd
grade teacher organize a project. I am in need of willing
participants. The project will consist of each
participating class to make 16 paper gingerbread men,
depicting facts about the area or state that you live in. I
will include a link at the end of this email to a site that
I got this idea from. This shows examples of gingerbread
men they had received while doing a similar project. Then
those 16 will be sent out, one to each of the participating
schools from all around the country. This will teach the
students many different skills including geography, map
skills, writing and social studies. A bulletin board can be
made with a map and when the gingerbread men are received, a
map marker can be placed from that school. We will need 17
schools to participate, since you wouldn't send one to your
own school. The students can brainstorm, research, and
create the gingerbread men individually or as a group. If
you are interested all I will need from you is your school
address, and your name, so that I can give a list of class
names to all participants. If you are not interested,
please share this idea with another third grade teacher. I
would like to get this project started right after
Thanksgiving, so that the gingerbread men can be mailed out
by December 10th. If you are interested please email me
back by November 12th. This will allow for other classes to
be contacted if you cannot participate. Here is the link to
the similar project to give you a better idea.
