April Retiree Meeting

Retiree Meeting Local 2195 UAW

Monday, April 13, at 11:00 am

American Legion post 15

Decatur, Al

I hope everyone is doing well and looking forward to some nice warm weather. I'm ready to put old man winter and the cold stuff behind us.

We will be having b.b.q. at this month's meeting: you are welcome to bring a covered dish, beans, potato salad, vinegar slaw.  Whatever you think is good with b.b.q. and any type of dessert is always welcome.

We furnish the meat, bread, potato chips, and drinks, tea, water, and coffee. If you would like a different drink, you would need to provide your own.

Everyone seems to be getting a better understanding of their WEX and OTC benefits. 

If you haven't used your wex benefit for 2025, you have until the end of April to file receipts for the wex benefit.  You can still file for your Medicare part b reimbursement.  That can be accomplished by having a social security statement of benefits for 2025, or you may use your social security 1099 tax statement.

The social security phone number is:

1-800-772-1213

The is a lot going on in our country, the republicans still have the part of the government shut down.  Thank goodness they have finally agreed to pay the tsa workers at the airports. Ice hasn't missed a paycheck.

Trump and Netanyahu have started a war with Iran. Trump did this as a lone wolf.  Did not notify the appropriate congress representatives and do not make a case to the American people for why this drastic action is necessary,  committing our young men and women in our military and placing them in harm's way is extremely serious.

I hope to see you at the meeting:

In solidarity.
