CALL TO ACTION

A few in Congress would like to take away our benefits that we earned by our service whether over seas, under actual fire, in remote places or by a life time of dedication. We all gave up something and asked little in return. Now, the ultimate test faces us with Senator Grassley(R-IA) and Wyden(D-OR) trying to amend the Health Care to eliminate FEHBP by putting all Active and Retired Federal Employees in an Insurance Exchange System rather than FEHBP. This attack on our FEHBP was amended to OPTIONAL, and in its latter form it got out of Committee. If approved by the full Senate and House which is a real possibility, then the enemy is within our walls. Kiss our benefits good bye.

It will be only a matter of time for them to eat away at what is left.

Let Congress know that you are aware of what is behind Senator Grassley’s amendment. That he is attacking all Active and Retired Federal Employees and that he is merely hiding behind the issue of Health Care.
