APAC, UIC United Hold
Retirement Funds Panel Discussion

A large crowd attended the recent APAC/UIC United panel discussion 
on retirement funds.

APAC AND UIC United, the UIC chapter of the State Universities Annuitants Association (SUAA), on Sept. 20 held a panel discussion concerning financial plans for recovery relative to State funding of our retirement plans.

PANELISTS WERE Democratic Senator Heather Steans; Senator Matt Murphy, Minority Caucus Chair; Ralph Martire, Executive Director, Center for Tax and Budget Accountability; and Professor Paul Green, Director of the Institute for Politics, Roosevelt University, who served as moderator.

THEY ADDRESSED the audience’s questions on critical issues related to Illinois solvency such as State Universities Retirement System (SURS funding), potential pension legislation, and the University budget.
