“The arkansas state employees association (asea's)fiscal year end 6 30 2021 highlights included: legislative accomplishments included protecting the benefits of retired state employees. Independent proposals were introduced to reduce the annual pension cost of living adjustment from 3% to the consumer price index rate. This proposal did not leave committee after asea lobbied committee members and we rallied our retired members to contact their legislators. After that situation a decision was made by the employee benefits board to remove retirees from the state and employee supported pharmacy plan and enroll them in a medicare part "d" plan. Asea formed a retiree sub- committee to fight this issue and contacted retirees from all over the state. Soon after the ebd board held a special meeting and a motion was made to expunge the vote. Since then a more careful approach has been made to reduce the incoming deficit. Asea was proud to award a record number of scholarships during our fiscal year. A total of 20 1,000 scholarships were awarded to members of asea and their families.”
