May 17, 2009 - Board Chair Assistant Chief Bobby Deal and John Keane, Executive Director - Administrator of the Pension Fund met with Senator Bill Nelson. We expressed our thanks for the support Senator Nelson has given our effort to repeal the Government Pension Offset and Windfall Elimination Provision in the Social Security Act. These provisions greatly reduce the amount of Social Security benefits paid to retirees and survivors who also receive a government pension.

Senator Nelson has actively supported numerous legislative initiatives during his career that benefit our members. The Senator also supports the activities of our Police Athletic League with the after school mentoring and counseling programs.
