Retirement Security Inititative

The Retirement Security Initiative (RSI) is a national, bipartisan, advocacy organization, focused on protecting and ensuring the fairness and solvency of public sector retirement plans. Our mission is to inform, educate, and organize policy leaders and the public regarding the importance of fair and sustainable public sector retirement plans.

We believe that:

· State and local governments have a responsibility to provide essential services that protect the safety, health, welfare, and quality of life for all Americans;

· State and local governments have an obligation to ensure that their retirement plans are sustainable, fiscally sound, and responsibly managed so that all retirees and employees get paid what they have earned; and

· Solutions to the funding and cost crises need to be developed with input from employees, retirees, labor, management, taxpayers, and fiscal experts.
