Cast Your Vote For Retirement Security

CPF Endorsements for CalPERS Board Positions

The election that could most affect your retirement security is the mail-in election for CalPERS Board of Directors.

Two “at large” seats are up for a vote — every CalPERS member will be able to vote. When CalPERS seats are up, firefighters need to vote like your pension depends on it.

After reviewing the choices, CPF has endorsed candidates in each seat that it believes will be the best candidates to listen to our members’ concerns and stand up for your hard-earned retirement.

  • Over 30 years fighting to protect pensions and health care
  • Co-founder (with CPF) of Californians for Retirement Security
  • Committed to earning maximum returns to ensure plan solvency

Jose Luis Pacheco
At Large – Position B
Strong investment returns, and new leadership for CalPERS board 

  • Second-generation union member & longtime pension champion
  • Understands fiduciary role as Vice Chair of Board for Santa Clara Co. FCU
