Ken Hewitt, Chair of the Legislation Committee of the California Retired Teachers Association, will appear at a press conference Tuesday, February 6 to spotlight Congressional efforts to repeal The Annulment or abrogation of a previously existing statute by the enactment of a later law that revokes the former law.

The revocation of the law can either be done through an express repeal
 penalties in the Social Security system that reduce or eliminate benefits to public school teachers and other public workers.

"Thousands of carefully planned retirements have been destroyed because school teachers were not aware that they would receive reduced Social Security benefits for their own work under the system through the Windfall windfall

"Even more retired teachers are affected by the Government Pension Offset, which typically eliminates any survivor's benefits for retired school teachers when their spouse spouse  A legal marriage partner as defined by state law  dies. A loss of $1,000 or more in income late in life due to the GPO is devastating dev·as·tate
