This is why we fight. No labor union or employer should force their members in MA. Ever www.nbcbayarea.com/investigatio...

NYC employees/Retirees, did you know that your & your families private health data is being leveraged in collective-bargaining for $100 million? Even if you’re non union/ managerial? Join me Monday 5 pm when we discuss this with Matthew Weber & Ellen Rieser! Work-Bites too! wbai.org/listen-live/

If you have not read our OpEd in the @nydailynews.com you should! Get involved - this is your future! NYC Retirees have led this fight for almost 5 years now! Let us retire in dignity & not an affordability crisis. #PromisesMadePromisesKept www.nydailynews.com/2026/01/31/m...

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social @governor.ca.gov Chat w/me about Medicare fraud. Our retirees tried to get Medicare to stop this & were provided little assistance - THOUSANDS of $ recurring fraud. Two DIFFERENT NYC retirees but TWO unknown FT LAUDERDALE FL Providers filing fraudulent claims.

Thank you FDNY EMS!

Thank you @nycsanitation.bsky.social @local831.bsky.social @dsny

Retirees are NOT in unions but they sure wanted to take what’s ours!

www.medpagetoday.com/publichealth... in the great words of @wendellpotter.bsky.social #MedicareAdvantage is Not #Medicare or an advantage & @NycRetirees should not be forced into it.

www.amny.com/editorial/ma... @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social @mayor.nyc.gov "Medicare Advantage only enriches bad-faith private companies. It is antithetical to the pro-labor, inclusive environment that Mayor Mamdani is seeking to establish at City Hall."

Municipal workers accepted lower pay & benefits for decades in exchange for a pension and healthcare. You don’t get to change the deal after the work is done & we retired because it forces us into a man-made affordability crisis.

#NoTricksIn2026 #JusticeForNYCRetirees Retirees need legislation to protect our benefits from being stolen.

. @NycRetirees warned union leadership & City Council about the fund. Those warnings were dismissed. The MLC knew & misled everyone. The audit confirms retirees were right. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social There was misuse of taxpayer $ by the #MLC & Mayors #OLR for decades #FACTS

Warnings → Dismissal → Misuse → Insolvency → Healthcare Cuts This crisis did not happen overnight. @NYCretirees sounded the alarms. If we had been respected & heard, this could have been prevented. Do you believe us now?

It’s been three years. We fight for justice in 2026

We asked for audits. We asked for transparency. We were dismissed. The audit shows why listening mattered. #NYCRetirees #Transparency #MLCandCityMispresented #ProofIsInTheAudit Read it for yourself comptroller.nyc.gov/wp-content/u...

Congratulations @speakermenin.bsky.social NYC Retirees Looks forward to working with you.

My dear @errollouis.bsky.social remember this interview? We need a followup since the great @bradlanderofficial.bsky.social released his audit of the stabilization fund. Audit in article www.thecity.nyc/2025/12/30/l... My calendar is open! When can we connect? youtu.be/9q4B5THMOmQ

This is Part 1. Part 2 is below. Fractured Fairy Tales by the NYC Retirees - a tale of our battle with the City, our former unions, and Big Insurance over the last 4.5 years. youtu.be/pOGC5NUTh6Y

When the UFT leader Mulgrew lied at the RTC meeting last week we made an official statement and that can be seen on YouTube. Here is a whimsical Dr Seuss style reply they might understand better. Happy Holidays everyone! youtu.be/uDr4CRl3RQA

NYC Retirees Dr. Seuss Response to the BS President Mulgrew spewed at the RTC last week. We gave an official reply also on YouTube, but this might be more what they can understand... youtu.be/uDr4CRl3RQA

Did anyone see the story on the stabilization fund being bankrupted? And by whom? www.thecity.nyc/2025/12/22/c... @cmcrystalhudson.bsky.social @cmalexaaviles.bsky.social @cmsandynurse.bsky.social @cmshahanahanif.bsky.social @cmsandraung.bsky.social

Retirees are seeing their own former unions sell off their healthcare to leverage raises for active workers. This is anti union. Anti Labor. Anti Retiree, and Inhuman. They forced us to fight them. We should never have been in that position.

UFT Initially started the trend of robbing current retirees of their healthcare to pay for active worker raises.

No one will steal from @nycretirees.bsky.social And if you try we will hold you responsible Hear that UFT? DC37? Mayor Adams? Adrienne Adams? Good. ( clip 3)

Who have you got from New York’s largest retiree association, @nycretirees.bsky.social ? No one who’s fighting to preserve the health benefits promised to 250,000 retired city workers? That’s what I thought.

Join me Monday 5pm on @wbai.org when I speak with John Blau, @NycRetirees who will be 92 years old - worked decades for the city about long terms care policies & his city #Medicare benefits & #labor updates with Joe Maniscalco of WorkBitesNews wbai.org/listen-live/

Is there anyone who cares that the mayor imposing costs for the first time in 60 years on Medicare eligible Retirees on Low fixed income is putting them in medical debt and creating an affordability crisis? This was a VM from one of my retirees youtu.be/qQ221FoNFk0?...

While @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social l was running to complain to any camera that would listen, both Andrew Cuomo & Curtis Sliwa spoke to the largest retiree organization in the state about older NY issues and Municipal retiree concerns. Zohran ignored us for 10 months.

Here’s hoping tomorrow‘s NYC mayoral debate will ask the candidates if they promise to preserve municipal retirees’ traditional Medicare. Will they support a bill to ensure this? @katiehonan.bsky.social @errollouis.bsky.social @thebrianlehrershow.bsky.social @nycretirees.bsky.social

The Only Mayoral Candidate who recognizes @nycretirees.bsky.social vote & accepted our invitation - Curtis Sliwa. We have NOT heard back from @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social or Andrew Cuomo

This is my friend Margaret. She worked for the city for 40 years She wants NYC Council Speaker Adrienne Adams to understand why we need #intro1096 Let’s all tell her to help NYC Retirees like Margaret Call Speaker Adams Telephone: 718-206-2068 212-482-6731 youtu.be/ELfIix2F-Xw?...

The MLC said @billdeblasionyc.bsky.social prevented them from being transparent in 2021 when they jammed us into Medicare DisAdvantage. What's their excuse now? @dc37nyc.bsky.social @uftnyc.bsky.social #GregFloyd #GloriaMiddleton #HenryGarrido #HarryNespoli #EricAdams @nycspeakeradams.bsky.social

See you on the stairs!

If @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social wants to be Mayor, he should meet with the largest retiree organization in the City to understand what the City has been doing to us for the last 4 years. Our earned benefits and pension are diminished to benefit others.

The MLC and city imposed co-pays on Medicare Retirees for the first time in 60 years to fund their contract that doesn’t benefit a retiree. These costs are a financial burden and prevent preventing some from accessing healthcare. youtu.be/zqhipYtTcJU?...

gothamist.com/news/zohran-... @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is calling for city-owned grocery stores. NYC already has them. - Gothamist

a misc ping to @fdnychic.bsky.social

When @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social ignores NYC Retirees you should ask yourself why. We are the largest NYC Retirees Organization in NYC and represent 250,000 retirees most of whom live in NY. We are retired and not in unions. He isn't even supportive of our state legislation as assemblyman

.@NycRetirees statement regarding the New York State Court of appeals decision. A larger Press release will be coming shortly @nycspeakeradams.bsky.social

Well Randi… you created some of this by allowing the UFT leadership to negotiate away retiree Medicare benefits & attacking retirees citywide They not only attacked this brave woman & unionist. They attacked rus for defending ourselves incluidng staffers like Ellie Engler Carte Blanche. Toxic UFT
