What specifically dont you like about the trust? If we had the trust now it would be 12-16% cheaper for the exact plan we have with the exact benefits we have. Why would you oppose cheaper insurance for the same benefits? You have your poll, so explain for all to see it's down side.

Poll is out! Overwhelming support for the trust.

I don’t know if I would consider 125 votes overwhelming support...

Well with typical low membership responses based on the responses it is still considered that the majority of those who responded are in favor!

I will never vote for the trust. To many variables. Active members have good insurance ask around other agencies. We wanted to help out retirees and current retired are not in this trust and will stay with city. No way the first couple years the trust will not be 16% cheeper. Plus it’s SELF insured. Why would I trust a brand new trust to be self insured. I’ll stay with city guaranteed insurance.

This is the best contract to get money for compounding our pension money as the city has it this time. I know insurance is steep after retirement but it isn’t bad with 13th check and this nation will have socialized healthcare by then so no worries for me.

People can have their opinion but that’s mine. Plus I don’t want to pay to take my car home. That is a real possibility if we push hard on this trust.

Finally trust was Abe idea so no I don’t want it.

Dude you have no clue what your talking about. 100 bucks you haven’t been to a single contract or health trust negotiation or meeting. Keep your option to yourself nobody cares.
