WE NEED UPDATED PERSONAL EMAIL ADDRESSES
Updated
On: Apr 05, 2010 (13:47:00)
ATTENTION PLEASE ALL REGISTERED USERS
As you now know, we recently received a call to action with regard to a bill that was coming up for an almost immediate vote in the House of Representatives. It was requested that the members of IAFF Local F-282 contact their representatives to garner support for the bill. Because many of you did not provide an email address when you first registered on this site we weren't very successful getting the word out.
Please update your profiles with a non-government email address. Free email addresses are usually available from your Internet Service Provider as well as HOTMAIL, YAHOO, AOL and GOOGLE. We will use the email address you provide us only to send you important information that has time constraints. Thank you to those of you that have updated your email address as requested, your assistance is very much appreciated.

MISSING MINUTES OF MEETINGS
Updated
On: Aug 18, 2010 (17:22:00)
Several anonymous emails have been received through the -contact us- link on this website. Each asked why so many of the minutes of facility level meetings are not posted here. The simple answer is that the Secretary/Treasurer and I can only post what we are provided by the facility Vice-Presidents. We will also appreciate new pictures for posting

1) The President's blog is updated regularly, normally weekly. 2) Blogs can be set up for facility Vice-Presidents and committee chairs. It really is a good way to keep your membership up to date, especially those folks on the opposite shift. 3) Please feel free to submit articles, links or pictures for publication on this website. 4) Please notify me of any links that have gone dead.

INCREASE YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFIT?
Updated
On: Aug 10, 2010 (09:36:00)
I've been asked to post the following.
DD FORM 214 -- SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFIT Please share this with anyone who had active duty service between January 1957 to December 31, 2001 and planning for retirement. In a nutshell it boils down to this:
You qualify for a higher social security payment because of your Military service, for active duty any time from 1957 through 2001 (the program was done away with 1 January 2002). Up to $1200 per year of earnings credit credited at time of application - which can make a substantial difference in social security monthly payments upon your retirement. You must bring your DD-214 to the Social Security Office and you must ask for this benefit to receive it!
Soc Sec website: http://www.ssa.gov/retire2/military.htm
This is something to put in your files for when you apply for Social Security down the road. It is NOT just for retirees, BUT anyone who has served on active duty between January 1957 to December 31, 2001.
FYI - this benefit is not automatic, you must ask for it! We've all been on active duty between 1957 and 2001 or know someone who has.
