 Over the past year, NYSUT members have turned out in big numbers to rally in all corners of the state to Fix Tier 6. Because of our ongoing advocacy, we’ve secured historic wins on our way to pension fairness: We reduced vesting from 10 to 5 years, protecting pensions for 85,000 Tier 6 members. We also lowered the Final Average Salary calculation from 5 to 3 years, the most significant pension reform in 20 years! Now it's time for the biggest action yet. On March 8, 2026, we will fill the MVP Arena in Albany with over 10,000 NYSUT members and other union advocates for retirement tier equity. Registration for this event is now open. To help our members from across the state make the trip to Albany, we will coordinate bus transportation from many regions. We will be in touch with more information on the rally, busing and other logistical details in the coming months. For now, please share with your members and encourage them to register.

Every seat filled equals more pressure on lawmakers. And every voice raised brings us closer to victory.
And remember, we won’t quit until we Fix Tier 6!
