Show Notes

After 40 years of injustice, public employees will finally receive the full Social Security benefits they have earned. The 118th Congress has passed the Social Security Fairness Act, repealing the Windfall Elimination Provision and Government Pension Offset. Join us as we discuss this historic victory with Jim Pasco, Executive Director of the Fraternal Order of Police, and Edward Kelly, General President of the International Association of Firefighters. Together, we’ll break down the years of advocacy, bipartisan efforts, and the role law enforcement and firefighters played in making history.

What led to this landmark change?

How did the FOP and IAFF unite to push this through?

What does this mean for public employees moving forward?
