from the national website...
"NARFE is
the ONLY association dedicated to preserving and improving the retirement benefits of federal employees.
We have since 1921! NARFE's reputation and power enable us to influence legislative decisions that affect your life. We are
YOUR special interest group.
NARFE's national legislative program is advanced in Congress by a team of registered
lobbyists backed by an informed network of grass-root activists in every state and congressional district, and a member-supported
Political Action Committee. Our strong supporters and years of experience on Capitol Hill and in federal agencies have made
NARFE a name respected by members of Congress and a key player in the federal community.
NARFE's
legislative program is crafted by its members at a national convention held in the year immediately preceding the beginning
of each new Congress. Through a resolution procedure originating at the local chapter level, the process culminates at the
national convention with the adoption of specific legislative policy goals. Once approved, the goals become NARFE's legislative
program for the next Congress."
NARFE is addressing Premium Conversion, Medicare, Long Term Care Insurance
Tax Relief, Social Security Privatization, Government Pension Offset, Windfall Elimination Provision, Federal Taxation of
Annuities, and Increased Survivor Benefit Option, to name a few. To learn more about these and yet more
issues, how they impact Federal retirees, and what NARFE is doing about them, click on the NARFE link below.
