We worked for many years getting paid less than teachers in surrounding areas with a promise of security after retirement. We’ve paid into Medicare for all these years and deserve this earned benefit.

After years of service how dare my Medicare be cut, especially when I need good medical coverage. Don’t cut services on the backs of retirees!

We worked diligently for the city. Now is the time for the city to work diligently for its retirees. We gave you the best years of our lives. We helped the city out with 0 increases and deferred pay when you needed it. It’s time to help the retirees

We have paid the Federal Government for Medicare coverage and that is the coverage we should have.

Save our health plan -GHI senior care. Medicare Advantage plans are good for healthy people. Older I get , I need more procedures and doctor visits -not less

This disingenuous slight of hand by our unions, who we trusted, to always act in our best interests, particularly now that we are senior citizens, in concert with the City of New York is REPREHENSIBLE. They have sneakily planned to shift our Traditional Medicare with supplemental health coverage,which past union leaders proudly fought for to a DISADVANTAGED plan which we realize despite all their "EXPLAINING" could never measure up to what we currently have. All this being done to save money for NYC on the backs of its most vulnerable population......its retirees.

A Medicare advantage plan is a privatized for profit plan. No company should profit from retiree Medicare coverage.

Once again government reneging on a promise made to the working class! I’m so disgusted by broken promises and givebacks.
