,” : David Bradley, the problem is that many Texas teachers also worked in jobs that paid into Social Security. I am one of those. I worked in the business world for 19 years, paying into Social Security. Then I became a teacher and paid into my pension fund for 21 years. As a retiree, when I turned 65 I began taking my Social Security benefits but they were reduced because I have a teacher pension .
That is not the issue and no one expects to receive Social Security unless they paid into it for 40 quarters. The issue is that individuals who have paid into Social Security for previous employment or second jobs are penalized because they receive a pension. Our representatives in Congress and the state receive both a state or federal pension and full Social Security benefits. The people who are getting penalized are teachers, firefighters and police.
