The Pension Crisis is About All of Us.

We would like to congratulate the General Assembly for passing the Rhode Island Retirement Security Act of 2011. Despite tremendous pressure to protect the status quo, our legislators have demonstrated unprecedented political bravery. And with the country watching, we've shown we can fix our problems. Make no mistake, this isn't a celebration. Rhode Islanders have been severely impacted by this legislation. But we are now on a course towards securing people's futures, providing a sustainable system, and giving the taxpayers of Rhode Island a much-needed break. Thank you Speaker Gordon Fox, Senate President Paiva Weed and members of the General Assembly for your courage.

Pension reform affects all of us at every age, income level and in every city or town. If the General Assembly fails to act - or fails to make the needed changes- we will all suffer the consequences.
