NBC Bay Area recently ran an editorial supporting “bold changes” to the California state pension system, “Pensions Need Pruning!” (Nov. 11).

The editorial fails to address some key facts regarding the reality of average state worker pensions, and how Governor Brown’s proposal could severely impact public employees’ modest plans for retirement.

Facts like:

  • According to CalPERS, the median pension for all California state employee retirees is $1,499/month, or about $18,000 per year. And the average retirement age is higher than most would have you believe – 60 years.
  • According to a study by UC Berkeley, nearly HALF of all California state workers will retire in or near poverty.

So, what will your retirement look like?

We encourage all ACSS members to view the editorial and share how “bold” pension reform will impact them in the comments section below the story.
