re: Rep. Garret Graves escalates effort to repeal Social Security penalty for teachers, police

That’s how it was with my dad, he worked 20 years in the oilfield, right out of college and then after the oil crisis and slow times, he went back to UL, got his teacher’s certificate and taught for 22 years. When it came to retirement, he was denied those 20 years he paid into Social Security because he has a government pension. He didn’t put into SS once he became a teacher, but they robbed him from his 20 years of work prior to having a government job.
