FCERA General Seat Election: Re-elect Riley Talford

Why SEIU 521 Members Back Riley for Re-election:

We’re proud to support Riley because he understands that protecting our retirement isn’t just about numbers; it’s about ensuring every public servant can retire with dignity and security. As an incumbent FCERA Trustee, Riley has a proven record of standing up for working people. He has helped lead important efforts to establish new retirement Cost-of-Living Adjustment (COLA) tiers and has consistently advocated for protecting the pension benefits we’ve earned through our years of public service. Riley brings the voice of frontline workers to the Pension Board, and we know he’ll continue putting working families first.
