While the presidential election is the most talked about contest this year, there will be many issues that will affect us locally and at the state level, including Proposition 55, the Children’s Education and Health Care Protection Act. Whether it’s a ballot proposition affecting schools or our benefits, or whether it’s a local school board race, school bond, or candidate to the state Legislature, all the choices we make at the ballot impact affect retirees and our schools. That’s why it’s crucial to make our voices heard through the ballot.
