MS Retired Public Employees Association

The Mississippi Retired Public Employees Association (MRPEA) is dedicated to advocating for the interests of its 368,000 members and their families, focusing on the Public Employees Retirement System (PERS) and its funding needs. Led by President Bonnie Granger, MRPEA actively engages with state lawmakers to ensure sustainable retirement benefits and address the unfunded liabilities affecting the system.

MRPEA emphasizes the importance of a committed, long-term solution for funding PERS, citing the need for increased employer contribution rates and the support of a Defined Benefit Tier 5 plan for future members. With a keen eye on legislative developments, the association seeks to protect retirement security for both current and future public employees in Mississippi.
