The City is currently trying to push an amendment to the Administrative Code through the City Council, which would allow the City to save money at workers’ expense by reducing healthcare benefits to ALL workers on NYC’s medical coverage.  

Please RSVP to join us on Tuesday, October 25th for a panel with experts on policy and labor activism to learn how City Administrative Code 12-126 would change the City’s responsibility to provide healthcare benefits to its workers.  We will cover what the code is, why this amendment is being proposed, and how it will impact both active and retired city workers and their dependents. There will be time allotted for a lengthy Q&A session! Most importantly, we will discuss how to actively oppose this change (to take action now, you can call your City Councilmember HERE).  

The code they are looking to change has protected NYC workers for over fifty years, and this amendment is a direct attack to undermine the hard-earned benefits of City employees.  Join us to learn more on October 25th at 7:30 on Zoom!

Please come out and join us on Thursday Oct. 27th  at 12:30 pm on Broadway & Park Pl. for a Halloween Horror Press Conference as we greet our City Council members entering City Hall. We are frightened and need to let them know NOT to amend City Administrative Code 12-126 because the results would be very scary for us and for our health.


New York City Municipal retirees have fought for over a year to keep the City from switching our excellent traditional Medicare with supplement to a privatized Medicare Advantage Plan.  We won a lawsuit protecting us, and now the City is doing an "end run" by trying to get the City Council to change the law--Admin. Code 12-126!   This change  will not only affect retirees but could diminish current city workers' health benefits as well.


We are gathering once again when the Council is in session to tell them— VOTE NO!
