Fight Pension Theft—Donate to Our Legal Defense Fund!
In the coming months, Illinois courts will rule on the constitutionality of the new "pension theft" law that threatens to cut the retirement benefits of hundreds of thousands of Illinois working families by 30%. The financial future of our teachers, emergency responders, nurses, and other workers and retirees hangs in the balance. They need your help to protect their life savings in court!
Over a lifetime of service, these workers faithfully contributed to their pensions from every paycheck, but Springfield politicians didn't hold up their end of the bargain. Most of these public servants don't receive Social Security, so their modest pension is all they have.
Pension theft isn't only unfair, it's unconstitutional. That's why the We Are One Illinois union coalition is seeking justice in court. But lawsuits are very expensive. Working men and women need your help.
What can you chip in to support teachers, firefighters, and caretakers today? They serve and protect us everyday. Now, let's help protect them. Your generous contribution is not tax-deductible and will only be used for legal fees. It is not a political contribution, and your name will not be made public or shared.
