National FOP has filed for a permit to hold a rally.

 

 

 

Dear Brothers and Sisters,

 

 

 

 

I am pleased to share that the National FOP has filed for a permit to hold a rally at the US Capitol this Wednesday to urge the US Senate to move HR 82 on the Senate Floor and pass the bill. There are no anticipated issues with obtaining the permit.

 

 

 

 

Once approved, the Rally is scheduled for Wednesday, December 11th at 11:30 am and will be hosted in collaboration with the FOP, IAFF, AFSCME, AFT, NEA, AFL-CIO, and NARFE. This united front represents a significant opportunity to send a powerful and undeniable message to members of the Senate: the time to act is now!

 

 

 

 

It is critical that the FOP has a strong presence at this Rally. A large turnout will reinforce our collective voice and create the momentum needed to secure a final vote in the Senate. With the mobilization efforts of all participating organizations, we are positioned to make a tremendous impact.

 

 

 

 

We are actively working on finalizing a hotel block and will provide more details regarding accommodations and Rally logistics as soon as they are available.

 

 

 

 

IMMEDIATE ACTION NEEDED

 

 

 

 

While preparations for the Rally are underway, we must continue to mobilize our grassroots campaign. Please encourage ALL MEMBERS to take immediate action by calling the following Senators to demand movement on H.R. 82, the Social Security Fairness Act:

 

 

 

 

1. Senate Leader Chuck Schumer: 202-224-2158

 

2. Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell: 202-224-3135

 

3. Senate Committee on Finance -

 

Ranking Member Michael D. Crapo: 202-224-4515

 

 

 

 

When calling, remind them:

 

 

 

 

• The Social Security system is broken, and the time to fix it is now.

 

• Urge Senate Leader Schumer and Senate Minority Leader McConnell to move H.R. 82 to the Senate floor for a vote without delay.

 

• Ask each to vote YES on H.R. 82.

 

 

 

 

Time is of the essence. There are only about 10 legislative days left in this Congress. Let’s ensure that the voices of law enforcement and public servants across the nation are heard loud and clear.

 

 

 

 

Thank you for your unwavering dedication to this fight. Together, we will secure justice for our retired public servants.

Fraternally,

 

 

 

 

Marinos Marinos
