Retiree cost-of-living adjustment (COLA)

Read a letter from State Rep. Brian Monroe that deferred pension concerns to the county commissioners, and urged the retirement board to contact the entire Bucks County legislative delegation since no legislation is planned to fix the pension law.

Said inflation has cost retirees about 30% of pension purchasing power since the last COLA in 2020 and warned it could reach half within five years; called the board the retirees' only hope for relief.
