20-year pension bill passes in new state budget

The CCA thanks Gov. Hochul and the NYS Legislature for passing the 20-year pension bill in the FY 2027 NYS budget, and Mayor Mamdani and the NYC Council for endorsing it.


Anyone who was hired on or after April 1, 2012, will now be eligible to retire with a pension based on ½ of their Final Average Salary. We understand there are many questions pertaining to this improvement to the Enhanced Tier 3 pension. Before we respond to any of those questions, however, we need to be patient and allow NYCERS and our professionals to fully digest the new law. 


As soon as we hear back from those entities with their interpretation of the new law, we will report back to you.

Note from President
Paul J. Idlett
on New Bellevue Therapeutic Housing Unit

The new Bellevue Therapeutic Housing Unit is set to open April 8, providing a supportive environment designed to assist incarcerated individuals during their transition into a therapeutic setting. This facility will offer various resources aimed at fostering recovery and personal growth. The focus will be on creating a nurturing atmosphere that encourages engagement and collaboration among persons in custody. In conjunction with this opening, the CCA is committed to supporting our Captains as they transfer into and adjust to this new surrounding. This support will include training, resources, and ongoing communication to ensure they are well-equipped to guide and assist the persons in custody effectively. Overall, the Bellevue Therapeutic Housing Unit represents a significant step toward enhancing care and support for individuals in need, as well as a new environment for Captains that enhances safety and security for all.
