ACTIVITIES

Ad Hoc Coalition member organizations represent hundreds of thousands of individuals who spent their careers loyally working for some of the largest, most prominent and prosperous companies in the nation. We trusted our employers to make good on their promises that our hard work would be acknowledged and compensated during our "golden years". Instead, these companies unfairly and unjustifiably cancelled or cut the pension and retiree health benefits we worked long and hard to earn.

We have joined together to educate policymakers and the public about the need to put an end to broken retirement promises.

During the recent campaign we contacted the presidential candidates and appeared at their rallies to ask them to sign a "Fulfilliing the Promises" pledge. Now we are working at the grassroots and national level to make broken retirement promises a national issue.

If your organization would be interested in joining our Coalition or you would like additional information, please contact the Coalition's spokesperson Janice Winston: adhoccoalition@yahoo.com
