AFSA CEO Represents Members During Congressional Testimony

PictureAFSA CEO Robert L. Frank testifies before the Senate Armed Services Subcommittee on Personnel Feb. 11.
Feb. 11, 2015:  "We are in early analysis of the Commission’s report, but to get right to the point I ask, why are we looking at this specific change to the retirement system?  To be frank about the elephant in the room, is this about saving money?  $12 Billion is nothing to sneeze at, but we all have been briefed, the approach was not to save money and it was about creating a better system."
