I'm a FERS retiree!  Why should I join NARFE?

NARFE works to:
    -Protect your health benefits.  Recently, NARFE was
instrumental in providing federal employees, both current and retired,
with the opportunity to purchase long term health care insurance at a
below  market cost.
    -Protect your annuity.  If your annuity is tied to the cost-of -living, 
NARFE works to prevent congressional tampering with the formula.  
Such issues as the Windfall Elimination Provision, Government Pension 
Offset that can adversely affect your annuity are being actively opposed
by NARFE.
    -In the last year of the Clinton Administration, all Executive Branch employees
 received the benefit of paying their for their health benefits with pre-tax dollars.
 This action saved them $300-$400 a year.  The legislative and Justice Branches soon
 followed suit.  NARFE is working to have Congress apply this benefit to reired federal
 employees, as well.
-These and many others are reasons why you should be a NARFE member.

Remember, there is strength in numbers.
NARFE has congressional clout in proportion to the number of it's members.
