Proclamation from Mayor Bill de Blasio
“Whereas: The New York City Employees’ Retirement System was founded by the New York State legislature in 1920 with 13,331 members. Over the last century, NYCERS has become the largest municipal public employee retirement system in the United States. Every day, NYCERS serves more than 350,000 active members and retirees, ranging from correctional officers and sanitation workers to accountants, social workers and many more individuals tasked with keeping our city running. Today, I am proud to join with NYCERS as it celebrates it’s 100th anniversary.”
