Retiring from your job doesn’t mean you can’t stay involved with your union. AFSCME retirees have an active program in Wisconsin. “It’s a great way to stay in touch. There’s a lot of good camaraderie,” says Jerry LaPoint, president of Chapter 7 Retirees. “Being a member is a good way to stay involved and to keep an eye on issues that are important to us, like health care and pensions,” LaPoint said. For more information, feel free to give Jerry a call at (715) 834-1996. Chapter 7 has subchapters throughout the state that have their own local meetings, and once a year there is a statewide convention.
