Your Association Is Ready To Help

NMAER represents all educational retirees in New Mexico. NMAER is the advocate for New Mexico retirees. For more than 70 years, it has been the only agency in the state whose sole purpose is to promote the quality of life of retired educators in New Mexico.
Pension Protection
We're the organization guarding your retirement income from legislative changes that could reduce your pension. We've been fighting for years, and this is no time to stop. Pensions could be questioned here and all over the country at any time.
Together, we can defend pensions. NMAER works tirelessly in the New Mexico legislature to protect your future pension benefits. An experienced lobbyist, paid by NMAER, provides legislative representation, proposes legislation, obtains sponsors and testifies on behalf of NMAER members at legislative committee meetings.
Access To Benefits
When you retire, you often lose benefits such as dental, vision, and other insurance. Your state benefits, and even Medicare, might not cover you in these areas. In fact, there's no out-of-pocket maximum.
The good news? Your membership gives you access to a wide range of quality insurance plans. As a member, you'll enjoy access to policies designed to protect your medical and financial well-being--everything from life insurance to Medicare supplement plans. And, thanks to our strength in numbers, you can enroll in the coverage you need at discounted group rates.
