The following was sent to every Minnesota State Senator and Representative. MNCORA encourages you to contact them expressing your support!
Dear Minnesota State Legislators,
The Minnesota Correctional Officer Retirement Association (MNCORA) supports the following Bills before you that we believe will make life better for retired Minnesota Correctional Officers:
SF 2838 & HF 2788-If enacted would exempt Social Security from Minnesota State income Tax
SF 3538 & HF 3902 – if passed would provide relief from Minnesota State Income Tax for the following pensions; Police and Fire, Local Government Correctional Plan, State Patrol and State Correctional Officers.
SF 4294 & HF 4306- If passed would increase the COLA’s and reduce employee contributions for most Minnesota State Retirement System plans, Public Employees
Retirement Association plans, Teachers Retirement Association, Minnesota state
higher education individual retirement account plan, and St. Paul Teachers
Retirement Fund Association; increasing postretirement adjustment rates;
temporarily reducing employee contribution rates; reducing the investment rate
of return actuarial assumption; increasing and extending direct state aid to the
public employees police and fire retirement plan, the St. Paul Teachers Retirement
Fund Association, and the judges retirement plan; appropriating money; amending
Minnesota Statutes.
The Minnesota Correctional Officer Retirement Association (MNCORA)believes that Correctional Officer retirees worked hard serving their State and Local Governments and deserve relief from high taxes after years of service and now on fixed incomes, especially in light of the State’s budget surplus.
MNCORA supports these Bills and urges your support.
Sincerely,
The MNCORA Board
