My name is Yvonne Walker, and I am running for the Retiree Seat on the CalPERS Board of Administration. I will protect the pension and health care benefits that you earned.

I have dedicated my life to fighting for fair wages, dignified working conditions, and protecting the hard-earned benefits of public employees and retirees. I have been on the front lines defending our pensions and health care benefits from the repeated attacks of those who would strip our retirement security away.

As a mom, grandmother, union president, retirement security advocate, pension fiduciary, Department of Justice state worker, and Marine Corps veteran, I have the real-world experience to bring people together and solve tough problems.

​

My promise to you is simple: as your next CalPERS representative, I will fight to fully fund our defined benefit pensions, protect our health care benefits, and improve customer service. You deserve a CalPERS that works for you.

​

Thank you, and I hope to earn your vote for the Retiree Seat on the CalPERS Board of Administration.
