Majeske David and April Hilton-Sykes, Publishers Letter to the Editor V o te no on m easure 8 To The Editor Seniors, vote no on Measure 8; it's an attack on seniors- retirees and potential retirees on fixed incom es. The legislature could not pay for the m .r " ifunded state man d a te to meal communities and wants to pay for it from the retirement trust account of local goverment employees, your neighbors. The sponsors of the initiative use an example of retirees with $48,000/year retirements. The true facts and figures are: Section 6, PERS information packet of July 28, 1994: Mon thly Benefit Amount No. of Retirees less than $500 mo, 31,080; $500-900, 12,845; $1,000-1,499, 6,681; $1,500- 1,999, 4,247; $2,000-2,499, 2,804; $2,500-2,999, 1,533; $3,000-3,499, 718; $3,500-3,999, 296; $4,000-4,499 ($48,000), 122; $4,500-4,999, 53; $5,000-5,499; 27; $5,500-5,999, 13; $6,000- 6,499, 8; over $6,500, 7. Half of all retirees get checks of less than $500 month. Of 60,434 retirees on PERS, only 230 make $48,000 or more. Do you think you can get a PAC 10 coach or university president to work in Oregon for under $48,000?. Why penalize local govern ment PERs employees for the inability of the legislature to balance the budget? If lottery dollars were diverted to educa tion instead of economic development, would you have to take money from retirees to balance the budget? Vote no on measure 8. Sup port local government services. Sincerely, (s) J. F.
