Association of
Ameritech/SBC Retirees SM
Our Strategy
The AASBCRSM board’s
strategy to protect retiree benefits is as follows:
Maintain a mutually supportive relationship with AT&T
Insure
that AT&T contracts are adhered to as we understand them.
Build the
largest possible AASBCRSM retiree membership base in order to provide the
maximum possible impact on retiree issues with governmental bodies and
AT&T.
Use
shareholder proposals to gain retiree issue recognition and attention from
AT&T.
Influence
and assist in the development of legislation (Independently and in
cooperation with the NRLN) that will protect promised retiree benefits
from shrinkage.
Extend
our collective influence by being a member of the NRLN, learning from
other NRLN members and providing support to the NRLN
Engage in
Litigation as a last resort where a “cause of action” exists in the
retiree benefit arena.
