"I spoke to Dean Dennis, who serves as the Executive Chair for the Ohio Retired Teachers Assoc. (ORTA), and the Founder of STRS Ohio Watchdogs. Dean has been on the frontline to defend teachers pensions. He had a lot to say about teacher pensions and the attack on Ohio retired teachers and the attempt to destroy pension democracy. We wrote a story entitled Ohio Governor Decides to Cancel Teacher Pension Fund Elections that was our second most popular story in 2025." - Jim Vail, Second City Teachers, Jan. 6, 2026
ORTA is continuing to collect donations for our Pension Defense Fund to pay for the ongoing lawsuit brought against current Board Chair Rudy Fichtenbaum and former Board member Wade Steen by Ohio AG Yost. Please consider making a donation to the Pension Defense Fund to help pay legal fees to defend and protect our pension and retirement benefits from current and future legal attacks.
