Join us for a “Legislative Meet and Greet” Thursday, October 11, at the Tacoma La Quinta Inn between 3:00 and 6:00 pm. ( Just off I-5 at Portland Avenue)
All Pierce County Legislative Candidates have been invited. The $5 entrance fee covers your coffee or tea, cheese and crackers, fresh fruit, and cookies. No host wine bar is available.
Our guests will be seated by Legislative District to facilitate conversation with their Legislator. Share your concerns. Ask questions. Get acquainted. Meet the candidates before you vote.
We encourage School Retirees and those currently employed in public education to attend. The Pierce County School Retirees Association represents more than 900 School Retirees in Pierce County. It is the local unit of the Washington State School Retirees Association, with 18,000 members, who are also providing funding for this event.
Hope to see you there!

I can’t afford the $5 cover charge since retiring from education.
Perhaps someone who attends will speak for reinstating the TRS Plan 1 COLA on a permanent basis as it was previously, not just the one-time only raise which was given this year. It was terminated the year I retired.
We TRS Plan 1 retirees are dying out here on a daily basis. The cost should decline over the years.
