Board and Staff

Every board member is a volunteer. They work as hard as they do because they believe in TSCL and its mission to fight for your earned benefits.

TSCL’s hardworking board has been recognized by Members of Congress. Former Representative Gil Gutknecht (MN) addressed the House of Representatives saying, “What a wonderful board it is. These are people who volunteer. They do not get paid large retainers. All that they do is work on behalf of their members and on behalf of seniors everywhere. When they saw what was happening to the cost of prescription drugs, they stepped up, and they made a difference.”
